Expert Opinion
Under Australian evening skies, persistent calls from this number often tie to market research efforts by McNair YellowSquares Pty Ltd, a legitimate firm conducting random surveys on landlines and mobiles. While exempt from the Do Not Call Register, many recipients report frustration with silent hang-ups after brief rings or pickups, suggesting inefficient dialing practices to maximize outreach. Such tactics can feel intrusive, especially at odd hours like 1955. To stop them, answer and request removal from their list, or call back their IVR system—though compliance varies. Block the number via your phone settings for immediate relief, and report persistent issues to the ACMA if they ignore opt-outs. Legit surveys won't demand payments or personal data beyond survey needs; hang up on anything suspicious.

It seems to be McNair. They ring a mobile and hang up after three rings so you can’t answer. Someone likely gets paid per call and drops the line as soon as it connects, boosting their earnings. I wonder if their supervisor is aware of this?
Received a call from McNair YellowSquares, a marketing research firm—blocked immediately. Clearly the Do Not Call list isn’t effective!

Do Not Call lists only block sales calls; research inquiries, even corporate ones, are exempt. It's frustrating, but that's the rule.
Received a McNair Yellow Square research call that turned out to be spam; I’ve blocked it, and the do‑not‑call list isn’t helping.
McNair Surveys keep ringing, I pick up and they fall silent—again and again. Even after blocking the line they somehow get through. I rang them back to demand no more calls; they promised to stop, but I’m not holding my breath, lol.

Silence greeted me when I answered; after a few seconds the line dropped. I’d rather they keep their nonsense to themselves.

If you notice a missed call from this number, it's likely McNair YellowSquares Pty Ltd trying to invite you to one of our surveys. Calls are placed randomly to landlines and mobiles across Australia, and sometimes we verify if you reside in the survey area. Participation is voluntary, though our clients value your input. To keep our sample representative, we may dial silent numbers and those on the Do Not Call Register, but you can request to stop receiving calls by informing the interviewer or contacting us directly. All calls may be recorded for training and quality purposes, and you may end the survey at any time. More details are available at mcnair.com.au.
