I was recently getting +371/375 'one-ring' calls to my mobile from Latvia for about a week. I reported the problem to ST and they were evidently very aware of the wider issue.martincymru wrote:Getting calls, perhaps 2 per day for last 3 days, from +92 Pakistan.
Singtel refuse to block.
Any advice how to resolve.
Oh no, it wasn't 'your problem not ours'. They took my report, but I could tell that it was an issue familiar to them.martincymru wrote:Thanks JR8.
I am amazed that Singtel take a "your problem mate" attitude.
There must be thousands of their customers affected.
It's not like it bothers me sufficiently to dig out if such a function exists. Also if won't help if the number keeps changing. I'm reporting it more so that ST can take a record of it, gauge the size of the overall issue, and so perhaps I have some form of comeback if I somehow get scammed into a call in future.

Yep, I also got that this week (Mandarin speaking).JR8 wrote:I've just had a 'one ring call' (well it rang maybe 3 times) from a +252 number.
Thought it might be one of the Baltic Republics. Nope, Somalia!![]()
'Oh, I better ring them back just in case it's someone I know'
p.s This week also a couple of calls from 741520, and +658017. The latter appears local (but then why the +65 prefix?), and was a recording of a women speaking in Mandarin...
