These guys are terrible! Once they get a minute of your time they just don't leave you alone.This started for me about 4 years ago. I have asked to be taken from the list. they stopped for a year or so but now, back at it! Brutal they are! They try to sell you on family friendly films that teach all things good to children because, according to them, TV is horrible and evil for them now a days.

The exact same thing just happend to me? WTF?

Got a call from this number tonight at 9pm local time.  The guy on the other line asked for me by name, but since I had no idea who he was, I said that I wasn't home ("Sorry, she's not here right now...") and asked if there was a message.  The guy said, "No, there's no message really, this is Jesse, I'll just call back another time.  Thanks."

Weird.

the first time they called, my husband answered and they asked for me, then they called back and I answered and they asked for my husband.  When I asked her to stop calling our house she hung up on me.  Very rude indeed, I think we'll block their number.  WTF do they want??

Feature Films for families..... they would have gotten your number from someone you know that gave it to them. I was suckered by them several years ago and bought movies from them. Not that the movies were bad or anything - just family-type movies. But to this day, years later, they still call me asking me to buy more movies, even though I said I don't want any more. And they always ask for names of friends/family members. People will tend to give out the numbers, because when you say no, and they push you, they say something to the effect of "that's fine that you don't want to order at this time, if you will just provide us with 10 names of family members and/or friends", etc, etc...... gets you off the hook so to speak.

friggin jesse calls here at least twice a week askin for my wife who works nights.she always sleepin!! tried to explain that to him today and he just ran his mouth...could a choked him...next time i am gonna keep him on the line for as long as i can..just a min..etc let the games begin!!!

According to a posting on another site:
Feature Films for Families uses the following numbers:
       705-733-8789
       905-988-9841
       613-241-8963
E-mail custservcan@familytv.com in attempts to get them to remove my number from each phone number's call list.
Caller ID shows long distance - no company name.

Also, their calling system is broken.  I have a feature in my phone system that will flat out reject their phone calls and send them the 'this number is not in service' message.  Their system still takes 3 weeks after receiving that to stop calling.

A woman called asked for my wife by first name then when told she wasn't home, said it was just Lois calling and said there was no message.
This is sneaky for a marketing call, making it sound like a personal call.

They called on our unlisted number, so I presume that a friend gave it to them as mentioned in a previous post.

I have a unlisted cell # that I give out to no one.  They call it.
If I don't know the # on call display, I don't answer it.

I just got a  call from this number - asking for my son, Jesse,  by his first name.  I said he no longer lives at home and she said OK - goodbye.   Our son moved out 5 years ago...   very weird!

I just called them back after they had called and asked for my wife.....I called them and got throught to someone , I asked them if they were interested in some window and door renovations , they politely refused, I proceeded to try to sell them clothing , she again politely refused and then I asked if I could deliver some burgers to their office...........she told me to F--K OFF and hung up , LOL it was so funny. I think we should all call them back after they call us and try to sell them something.....TOO FUNNY

It is Feature Films. they are trying to sell you family orientated films.  They are a little pushy but do that No for nd answer. Watch out though they will call every 3-6 months!

A woman called asked for my wife by first name then when told she wasn't home--hung up.

Feature Films for Families is a Utah-based company that produces family-friendly movies (no profanity, sexuality, violence, or vulgarity; but lots of traditional family values and morality). It is run largely by members of the "Latter-day Saints" (Mormons), however it is a private company that is NOT a non-profit charity (they are in business to make money). While the movies are good they may be a little overpriced, so you'll want to find out the prices before listening to the tele-marketer's whole sales pitch. Feature Films for Families has violated Missouri?s No Call law and has been sued by Verizon Wireless for illegal automated telemarketing.

They call from many different phone numbers. I have compiled a list of their phone numbers (but it's probably very incomplete). Here is my list of phone numbers used by Feature Films for Families:
416-234-0063
516-453-5521

Got a call from this number this mornign. didnt answer it and they didn't leave no message. must not have been important.

Got the same call as everyone else. they asked for my wife by name and when i told them she wasn't home they said ok, its Andre calling i will call back later.  I said any message and he said no and hung up.  I think I will go with the I don't speak english....desole, je ne parle pas l'anglais or something like that, lol!

This number 705-733-8789 belongs to Featured Films For Families. While their films are really good, they are very aggressive though in calling people. They also offer long distance service for a reasonable rate.

Yeah, that's the way I described it to my mother. They seemed to wait until I was done talking, however. It was the same words every time though.

I had two calls from this number asking for my mother. The first time was a woman, the second was a male. It doesn't seem to matter to them when they call, day or night!

The first was around 1:00 in the day, the second was about 10 minutes ago, at 9:00. It's always the same thing.

They ask to speak to her, and when I say she's at work or in bed and ask for a message, they just say that there's no message and hang up.

>_> It's weirding me out, but next time, i'll do what Kissycougar did and pretend I can't speak english. lol.

Just got called from them AGAIN! So sick of them, I got a few of their movieswhich were actually quite boring and expensive. One of them costed over 20 bucks and I saw it at Walmart for 6! I hung up on them once, they stopped calling for awhile but now they call at least once a week. I dont pick up the phone for them anymore.

Their 800 number is 1 800 347 2833 in case you want to order a pizza or see when the train from Toronto is due

They call me on a daily basis now, I just pretend I can't speak english and hang up on them.... now its a game for me LOL... Tomorrow when they call I am going to ask them to hold and just leave the phone off the hook till they get tired of holding...

That was hilarious. I JUST got done posting the previous message and this meathead from feature films for families called. He asked for my wife AGAIN and I said "speaking"! He goes right into a rant and asks me if the programs I watch offend me with the amount of profanity and adult issues. I said "Absolutely NOT!" "Quite frankly I feel that there isn't enough adult issues and profanity on the air!." He immediately goes into." That must be because you don't watch enought television." I reply with.."No..I watch just the right amount and I don't appreciate you telemarketer shatwads annoying me with your profound amount of disruptions while I am trying to find a less than family oriented content program to watch after a hard days work and piss up a stump..." He hung up.

Asked for my wife..said that they talked to her three weeks ago. This wasn't true...I asked if I could take a message...she said NO...that it was not important...that they would call back. This annoys the HELL out of me. If it's important enough to call it's important enough to leave a damn message. I asked for a call back # and said they my wife would call back when she arrived home shortly....I used to live in Barrie when I was in the armed forces..for once I wish I was still in...because I would drive over there and tell them what to do with their family films..

Just got a call from this number, which I didn't answer because I figured for sure it was a telemarketer.  This isn't a number that calls here frequently, but I do get a lot of calls from telemarketers, etc., so I wasn't at all surprised.  I'm getting tired of it all, though, something needs to be done about this sort of thing.

They are terribly annoying and condescending... Anyone in Barrie who gets ticked should go knock on the door and say hello. I might just do that when I'm driving through.
