"This is a public service announcment..." you can be debt free etc

harassing us for weeks now!!!!!

MAKE IT STOP!!

i was very nervous as if the phrase identify theft was flashing before my two own eyes

On June 11, 2011  at 11:10 A.M. MDT, I received a recorded announcement from Card Member Services. A woman said this was the last curtesy call that I would get and that I could lower my credit card interest to 6%. Unless I responded, my file would be closed. I was told to press 1 to reach one of their "friendly" service personell. This sounds like many other calls I've received about lowering my credit card interest rate. I was away from home so the recording went silent and then hung up after 10 seconds. Now I can delete the message from my answering machine.

I think that the person or persons behind the telephone number that want to help are more of a problem ( pest )  that any other problem/s .!  They have telephoned more than once and answer machine records what sounds like a recorded message. There is only a telephone number with no name on the caller ID.

I received a call from this number today. No message left. I'm wondering if they are a service that calls to find out when people are home so telemarketers can know when to call.

They have been calling non stop today.. don't leave a message.  I'm not in the habit of just answering the phone without checking the call display. Too many telemarketers!!  If its important, they can leave a message.  If not, then I guess that its not important!!

519-285-4356

The # appears to belong to Bell Canada.  I just spoke with them and they advised that they have no record of that #.  An earlier comment mentions the call possibly originating in Florida.  This is in fact possible.  It was further explained that the calls were most likely made using VOIP and not the traditional DTMF Land Line system.  If this is the case, they can have their outbound calls display whatever number they want on your caller ID.  I was also advised to call the security dept. and speak to an investigator who has the resources to trace the origin of that call even though the scammers are not Bell customers.  It's a matter of them using the Bell exchange under false pretenses such as caller ID spoofing.  If I hear more after speaking to an investigator I will update this post for you all.

Bell Canada - 1-800-668-6878

I missed the first few sentences and only heard that they've sent me several notifications and this is the last time they contact me

I was very nervous as if the phrase "Identify theft" was flashing before my eyes.

reported to CRTC. not holding out much hope to get this crap stopped.Been ongoing for months.

Got a call from 1-519-285-4356 twice a day every day for 2 weeks now. no messages, only air.Who in the heck are they?

called here about 5 minutes ago. I did answer it as I have relatives in the 519 exchange and I have been working on something with him over email so thought it might be him. Was a prerecorded message for credit debt. I hit the 0 repeatedly and it seemed to have killed the line so I hung up.

I'm also in Nova Scotia on Eastlink. I used the *60 option to block them from calling again.

does not answer when phone is picked up or leave messages. I am in Nova Scotia

persistent. calls twice a day...at meal times.

bump

I too just received a call.. Tired of this s**t and can't understan why the Government doesn't stop it unless it is a registered Charity.

OH please help!!  They have my cell number now!!! I don't answer long distance numbers on my cell!!  I just want them to stop!!!!!  I have tried to call the number back but I also get "this number is not longer in service".  I get so frustrated . . . .

Reported to no cll nmber and after 1 month got a call from 519-285-4356.  They are in contravention of Canadian Law.

same here - no answer, no recorded message, just dead air

Called my DO-NOT-CALL-listed land-line at 10:21 Pacific today.
I did not "press 2 to be removed".
When I pressed "1", then 'SHARON' answered, identifying herself as calling from CONSUMER DEBT ADVOCATES.  When I asked her, she said that they are a call-centre in FLORIDA, despite the '519' area-code (Ontario?).

I asked her to add my number to their own DO-NOT-CALL list, and hung up.

I usually answer all calls now and hang up.


This one is a prerecorded message to the tune of

"Are you tired of creditors calling you?" BlahBlahBlah

Well my answer to them is
I'm more sick of telemarketers calling me....

got a call from this number but I didn't pick up, left a message said his name was Jeff calling from Richmond Hill mentioned my boyfriends name and asked for him to call back and to quote his case number (which Jeff then quoted)..... I assuming its a debt collector because my bf got calls before concerning about an unpaid student loan he owed on it ...was only around $1000...but I done a credit check and it didn’t so up so my bf told them he wasn't paying it and they stopped calling for awhile...and the last guys name was Jeff also coincidence...I think not!

Just got a call from this number but didn't answer, my answering machine kicked in and two words before they hung up...  "reduced settlements" and the line went dead.

RECEIVED A CALL TODAY FROM THIS NUMBER AND DID NOT GET A MESSAGE LEFT. CURIOUS AS TO ITS ORIGIN.

This number has phoned my house multiple times. Even consecutive days at times. When I answer there is no answer, no record message, nothing.

just call me in nova scotia, i think its a scam

This is a recorded call about debt help

i got a call from that number didn't answer cause i was on the line but tried to call back to see what it was about but it said that the number was not in service

I got this call, too. Someone might want to answer it and get the full name of the company and post it for everyone to check. THANKS

They called here.
