TPG Telecom/ Vodafone / AAPT RVA Changes March '25
TPG (which includes AAPT and Vodafone networks) have introduced a new recorded voice announcement that is being applied to blocked numbers. TPG is currently blocking calls from A numbers involved in confirmed scam events and on the DNO list. They have confirmed that they are not introducing new blocking as part of this change.
From 11 March 2025, callers from blocked numbers now hear the recording "This call did not reach your intended destination. Please contact your service provider, advise them of this announcement - Message ID C661 - TPGT.”
When the confirmed scam event has been call spoofing, it is recognised that calls from the genuine number owner may be incorrectly impacted. TPG is hoping that the RVA will better allow the caller to understand where the blocking is taking place to assist with fault finding and quicker resolution.
