This phone number 204-289-1756 is not associated with any company I know.
They keep calling, but now I do not answer any unknown number.
If i need to buy something, I will only get it at a local store, and not through
telemarketing SCAM.

This company is circumventing current telemarketer legislation by saying that they are not telemarketers but conducting a survey or that you opted in to thier survey on the internet. Lies, pure lies. Survey my @ss. What part of DON"T CALL don't you ignorant b@stards understand?
This company and the people working for them are committng criminal activity that is criminal harassment pure and simple and they are habitual repeating offenders.
Best way to fight back is to not answer these jerks when they phone. But they are so annoying because they repeatedly offend by repeatedly calling and that is criminal harassment and punishable under the law.
Here's a couple of ways that you can fight back.
1. Report them to Federal & State Regulatory authorities.
2. DO NOT SUPPORT these companies in any way shape or form and tell everyone you know about these dis-reputable companies and to NOT support them in any way, shape or form. Don't buy their products or services so that they are put out of business and bankrupt. Starve their business so that lose their company, their homes and are starving on the streets. These people should will do something with their lives that is not parasitic and actually create something instead of taking something.
3. If you have a cell phone like an i-phone or android, use the call block feature on it as it's free. Just add these numbers to your "Blocked Callers" list on your cell phone.
4. Additionally, there is now computer software that your computer can run which will block callers to your home phone. Here is the info you need to stop the robo-calling and harassing you.
Sachem Alum Wins $25k in FTC Invention Contest to Block Robocalls
Nomorobo, an invention by Port Jefferson resident Aaron Foss, beat out nearly 800 other inventions in a call for ways to block robocalls. All this involves is using your home computer to filter the calls which you add to a Blocked Caller list. You computer will kill their robo-calls! : )

Do Not Answer 204-289-1756
Have had the same 204-289-1756 come to my home and business and it is deceiving when it comes up as a local number. It has come to the point where you need to keep a list of the BS numbers beside your telephone to determine which to answer or not. There should be a way to stop this by our service providers . Having them block them is not enough due they can change the number they call from on a daily basis.
| Annoyed 2013-04-10 02:16:21 Unknown |
No message left, usually no one on line if answered. Sometimes there is a recorded voice indicating info for seniors. Multiple calls daily. I am on the do not call registry. Also is able to get past my call screen service.
| Jwt873 2013-04-10 02:06:51 Unknown |
I never answer long distance numbers I don't know.. But 204 is local for me.. So I picked up... Got the taped message asking "are you a senior".. Hung up right away. Put the number in my call block.
Scum picking on seniors...
| Eric 2013-04-10 01:57:20 Unknown |
Rings every day.
Didn`t answer..................................
| cathy 2013-04-10 01:53:15 Unknown |
this number keeps calling my home phone which is private. please stop these calls....they leave no message and when i call back it says the number is not in service
| Enid 2013-04-10 01:51:32 Unknown |
I get about half a dozen calls from this number each day! I don't answer. No message is left. It is annoying having my phone ring all day long like this. Even though it is a Manitoba area code, a phone service can now be made up of any 10 numbers, area codes don't matter. From reading other complaints about this number this call probably does not originate from Manitoba.

Yeah, these horse phuckers called me yesterday-no message. I called back and got some sweepsteaks entry phone number for a free trip to Gophukyerself Ville.. don;t and the phone when these c***suckers cal, just don;answer One of them called me a n****r

Asked if I wanted to purchase Medical alert system.
Told her she was calling during dinner hour and asked if she wanted a spanking.
She said No.
I told her my answer is the same.
| scam alert 2013-04-09 22:31:23 Unknown |
they seem to go in spurts of calling for a few days and then not and then calling again, very annoying. Don't know if recording or not because I do not answer.

The Do Not Call List does about as much good as the Pedestrian button at the stop light.
| Sylvia Gabriel 2013-04-09 17:30:58 Unknown |
I am fed up with this number calling repeatedly and doesn't say anything. Tried calling back but no answer after a gagillion rings!!! Stop calling ..........I don't want anything, I don't need anything so STOP!!!!

204-289-1756 is in Manitoba, Canada.
Business is "medical alert system".
This is an illegal "Robo-call", a non-stop call you until you climb the wall, telemarketer.
I spoke to Johnathan, ID #4512. Very Rude. He kept talking and talking and talking,
and aggressively talked louder to try to keep me from talking at all.
I did speak, told him I was on the Do Not Call List (verified), and that his call was illegal.
Johnathan said I "must have checked a box on the internet".
What an idiot. No, I did not.
Johnathan just kept talking and talking and talking.
I reported him to the DNCL.
Everyone reading this, get on the DNCL. If you are, report them!!!
Do NOT be happy to "have your name taken off our list". They are doing Robocalling. This is Illegal!
Report them to the DNCL so they are SHUT DOWN and FINED and are forced
to STOP trying to RIP OFF the elderly and infirm!!!!!!!

This number and other numbers with the "v" type number are promoted as a home alert system by the american heart and american diabetes association - obviously a scam - here is the fraud warning ->

They let it ring twice then hang up.
| ernie 2013-04-09 00:35:03 Unknown |
every day stop calling????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
| Ann 2013-04-09 00:28:55 Unknown |
I was able to talk to a male, this morning and asked them to stop calling, as I don't need what they are selling.
But it has not stopped them I got another call this evening but no one was on there line.
We need a law to charge these persons with a fine when they keep harassing people.

Recorded message for "Senior Citizens". Number is blocked from a call back
| pissed off 2013-04-08 23:59:20 Unknown |
Phone rang I answered nothing then a click, a little while later it hung up. I'm on the do not call list what a waste of government money pardon me our money, the do not call list is useless just like the people that think they are working there at the troff, Lately I have been receiving call on my cell phone like this, just great there goes my 250 daytime minutes.
| Don't Call Me MOFO 2013-04-08 22:04:56 Unknown |
Just got called now. Don't ever answer anymore as always telemarketers (thank God for call display).
Wish they would give up, haven't answered a call in YEARS!!! but they keep coming.
Thankfully we have sites like this so we can at least vent.

Obviously we all have the same problem. I phoned CRTA enforcement and spoke with the lady named Margot. She explained the situation quite well to me; in turn I told her I'll inform the public and hope to benefit others. These are the advice she gave:
- do not pick up the phone for a call that is not familiar to you.
- if you happen to pick up the call, don't press the button the robot/caller instructs, because they may very well obtain your phone number this way. Many of the criminal callers actually don't know your phone number. They called by "spoofing off" dormant phones of different countries and eventually reaching Canada and USA. Also these robo callers can only call a group of 10 at a time. They have to move on to find the next victim if you continue to ignore them.
- never engage with telemarketers. They could be involved with criminal activities.
- if possible, do record the phone number and date the call was made to you, and complain to Do Not Call List Canada (on line or phone) even though it doesn't seem like they are helping. Margot told me they received thousands of calls a day, which CRTC collects for subsequent investigation. If the calls were from USA, then it would be handed over to SCC (counterpart of CRTC in Canada) for investigation. The process is complicated but apparently they have cracked some criminal cases. The last such case was April, 2013 as related in the CRTC website.
