Read the link again - it just a standard toll-free number.  It says nothing about charging someone answering a call from this number.

Area Code 855 Detail

Area code 855 is a future area code reserved for toll-free calls in which the calling party is not charged. Instead, the telephone carrier charges the cost of the call to the called party. Toll-free numbers, such as 855 numbers, have applications such as technical support, customer service, and personal use.

It's SP Data a partner of Rogers Telecommunications.

I just received a call on my cell and I  am with Bell. No Rogers account ever.

I continually get calls on my landline.

Not interested at all in anything that this call is in reference to.

Please stop, very annoying !!!!!!

I only signed up with Rogers about a month ago, and nobody except my family knows the number. Yet I get three calls a day from this number now.

Rogers will charge a fee to block it, but we shouldn't have to put up with it anyway. It's a complete joke.

I'm a Rogers PrePaid Customer as well.
I didn't answer call as I didn't know who it was.

You shouldn't have to contact ANY Co. to Opt-Out, that you haven't already asked to Opt you IN!!!!  That's just crazy.

We've gotten so many bogus calls lately it's absolutely ridiculous.  Here's a log and hopefully some helpful info.

Here's a list of numbers that have called us, just in the past MONTH!!!

All are some kind of SCAM/ Telemarketer!  A lot of those came into our Cell Phone where we have a limited amount of minutes!!  This is just waaaaay too pathetic.  It's SO out ot control!!

Below are the steps that we've been taking so far.  Hope they may help others till some sort of solution is found.....if ever.

DoNotCall, doesNOTwork!  After all these years of getting the same calls over & over again and eveyone saying "but I'm on the DNC list" and sending in complaints to DNC, but yet NOTHING ever happens, try the steps below.

At least TRY to stop the calls yourself.  Here are easy 1,2,3 steps to take.

1)  Buy a Home phone with Call BLOCKING functions and use it.  Maybe as these types of phones start flying off the shelves in record numbers and the phone manufacturers see the demand for them, they'll make even more of them and give the ability to Block even more numbers in them.
2)  Call your local Phone Company & see if they have a Call Blocking service.  If so, sign up for it!
3) On Cell Phones, put the number into your Contacts under SCAM or whatever, and then SET the Ringtone to NO RING or SILENT!
Ta da!  They won't ever be able to ring through and bother you again.  If you see them in your Cell phone List and you hadn't even known they ever called, CONGRATULATIONS!!  You have now fixed it yourself!

Do NOT ever call them back, even if it seems like an innocent Recording that says 'this is a non-working number' or whatever.
Do NOT bother telling them to put you on their 'Don't call list'.  Guess what? They don't really have one!  And seeing they're calling ILLEGALLY in the first place, don't waste your breath.
Do NOT talk to them at ALL, just HANG UP!
BLOCK them, and go on with your life.

If you're worried that it could be a Legitimate company trying to contact you, then wouldn't you think they'd have your Address and you'd have gotten a letter from them??

P.S.   NEVER call back a number listed on a questionable letter, either!  ALWAYS look it up yourself and be sure you're calling the REAL company, not just any old number given to you in a letter!!!!!!!  And don't contact the email address they give you, either!!!

It's a Felony to send anything through the U.S. mail that's bogus, but by the time you've called the number that they listed, or logged onto a website they gave you,  and given them all your personal info. to supposedly 'verify that it's really You', -  they've already stolen your Identity and your Bank account money, etc.!!  By the time you figure it out, your wallet is emptied, and you can complain to the Feds all you want.....  but by then your Identity and money is long GONE!

UI have been getting calls from this # for several weeks.  At least twice a day.  Also ... I get CHARGED for each call even if I don't answer it.  I am also a pay as you go customer and just recently purchased a new phone.  Rogers has been no help at all.  Am looking into changing providers even though I have been with Rogers for over 10 years.   Very frustrating!

I have been called by this number over 20 times in the lst 2 weeks. I don't pick up when i dont know who it is. And yes, I am a rogers prepaid customer as well

I have received several calls from this number. One time I answered with no responce. It may be time to change cell phone providers as I use Rogers as well.

btw, I am using Rogers too.

I received one call from this number last night, I picked up but no one answers. This number called me twice today.

Received a phone call from this number. The caller left no voice message.

I believe it to be Rogers

Called me once about an hour ago.  I didn't answer.

http://areacode.org/855 this link states that if you answer the call you are charged not the caller.  Nuts!

I was wondering the same thing, this number called
Me twice today.
