have often received calls from this number. I don't know why they keep disturbing everybody
there's no message or if you want to call back, nobody answers
just don't answer it

This is for sure a scam. Damn usually I am pretty good at sniffing these things out but the scammer made it sound like our company owner had previously signed up for this and that it was a renewal. So I get the invoice in the mail for $500, pay it (foolishly) and then get two more invoices in the mail from 'Direct Market Link' and 'Direct Services 411' for $500 and $750 respectively. Both invoices have my name on them as well as very similar addresses to the first invoice from 411 Directory Assistance, leading me to believe with certainty that they are all connected. After all, how would they have gotten my exact name without a phone call or at least an address?
Good job 411 Directory Assistance, you got me. Do yourself a favour and if you answer the phone and these jokers are on the other line, tell them to f--- off!

This number called my business today.  It's 411da.ca, not 411.ca.  After asking for updated address, she said, so where can I send the $575 invoice.  How ridiculous!  

411da.ca is a trade name of Sterling Business Solutions of Montreal. I have already made a complaint and requested an investigation be conducted by the Competition Bureau of Canada to determine if 411da.ca is violating any federal statues by trading off the trade name 411.ca

Female caller asked for the owner, told her he was not in and could I take a message. She just hung up. Very rude! .

I'm the same Xander from Aug2012 though I didn't recognize this number.

Lady identified herself as "411 directory assistance" and, like a lot of people, I thought she meant 411.ca.  Once she started trying to "confirm account information", I asked her what had happened to my account rep (I *do* advertise with 411.ca).  To her credit, she repeated the company name and I confirmed that it was not the same company as 411.ca.  She agreed.
I told her I did not have any budget for more advertising (and I have never heard of their site much less someone using it).

Hi - I just got sucked into this - I totally fell for the high pressure phone call and thought I was buying advertising on 411.ca not 441da.ca and when it never showed up I faxed them that I refused to pay my invoice and was then told there was a difference and that I would be obligated to pay a $301 'cancellation' fee which is half of the full year subscription.  When I refused to pay that they threatened to send me to collections. AGAIN they totally make it sound like it's 411.ca to get the sale, I said I believe they totally misrepresented themselves and I therefore did NOT get what I thought I was agreeing to sign up.  BEWARE!!!!  I got caught on a busy day and didn't double check the sight first, which I usually do before agreeing to anything, don't let it happen to you.

The caller is 411.ca (1-866-4827474 is listed on their website)

This caller calls at least once a week to my restaurant business over lunch hour and never says anything, they hang up after we answer! Very annoying and unprofessional

no message picked up phone they hung up this has been several times now

Get the phone number and keep calling them back.  Don't say anything, just hang up AFTER someone says hello.  Do this over and over and over.......

Recieved a phone call , asked for my boss when I told her her was unavailable , she was very rude and then hung up on me !

Don't just come here and whine, send a report to these guys http://www.occq-qcco.com/main.cfm?p=231&l=en&succes=1 it's the Quebec Commercial Certification Office, I'm guessing the local government run version of the BBB. Flood them with complaints and see how long they are listed there!!!!!!

Same p&%kers who call to confirm contact info for yellow listings
rude robots ..i got no patience ...i hang up

Called our Dr. office and I hung up right away when the delay of silence occurred... ALWAYS means its a telemarket scam or robovoice when that silence occurs. Now I see this has been going on for YEARS??

USELESS fed govt. for not hanging these crooks by the bolls and beating into a coma! Making a cut of their profits and allowing it?? Dr. offices should NOT have to be on an INOPERATIVE Do Not Call List ... also a scam... legitimate patients should be the only calls inbound but obviously the feds do not care about your health enough to act on this situation, already 2 or 3 years into the mass of complaints

Seriously, I would love to have one of their representatives come to the office JUST ONCE... we have a nurse on duty who could (but hopefully wouldnt) help such a crook...

This number called my business line.  I do service calls for local residential customers so, when I see an 866 number, I just say "Hello" (no business name nor my own name).  Woman on the other end just said it was a wrong number.  I'm wondering if I had identified it as a business that they were calling if my response would have been the same.

Received a call  - when I answered with a business name and how may I help you they proceeded to hang up. When I called the number back it was 411.ca with a number of different choices, sales etc. Not impressed to know its the information line.

Just received a call to my company from this number. Stating they're calling from 411.ca. How are these types of telemarketers not stopped especially with building evidence of fraud and such. I just quickly answered all my information is the same good bye.

ha ha this time i did not answer the d****heads

the dicks just hung up

I called it back and after a brief phone maze there was actually a human on the other end of 'technical assistance', much to my surprise.  Told them to stop calling and he SEEMED TO mark it down.  We'll see whether it makes one bit of difference.

Another call-and-hang-up.  Though from the looks of it they've called here many times before, bothering us trying to sell us space in their directory or somesuch.

keep getting a call from this number and nobody speaks, then they hang up.

Used to get this call when I was an employee of a small business. They'd call, confirm a bunch of information, and the first time, when things got a little too personal (how many employees etc) I asked what they needed that information for and they wouldn't tell me.

While still working for that same company I got the call several more times and they would ask for the person in charge of advertising. If I said he wasn't there they hung up without leaving a message (yellow pages left a message, as did other companies we advertised with) and if I said I -was- the person who took care of advertising they would pull the whole confirmation of information thing again and then get defensive when I wanted to know why a company we had no intention of setting up an account with was collecting all this information.

Now, I own a small business and their familiar number popped up on my caller ID, I ignored it. Won't be playing their games any more.

Very Rude on the phone.  Only wanted to speak to the person who would approve paying bills or advertizing budget.  When I explained I will not approve any expenses or upgrade in ads they hung up!
They called from 866 482 7474 - Glad to see this site to see who it was that called!

Just got a call asking for the owner, to verify and "update" 411 listing. I said noone was available and they say they'll call back later. How can they still be operating after so many complaints?

Calls once or twice a week. Never leaves a message.

I have received calls from this company several times a week for over a year to my home telephone number. The company is '411 Directory Assistance' and they claim they are associated with the Yellow Pages Group. A call to Y.P.G. confirmed this is a scam. Their address is 1400 Metcalfe Street, Montreal, QC, H3A 1X2 in Canada They call from: (866) 482-7474. I have asked them to cease and desist from all further calls, however they just keep calling. I have called their number on three occasions only to be directed to leave a voice message. I have requested that a manager call me so that I can be removed permanently from their call list. No response was ever received. I am on the National Do Not Call list and have reported this matter to the C.R.T.C. Beware of '411 Directory Assistance'. This is a Scam!

This number tries to call me in the afternoon every week--I always miss it. They never leave a message.

Did a reverse phone number search at 411.ca, results:

We did not find a phone number matching 866-482-7474
Suggestions:
?Please make sure that the phone number has been entered correctly
Still having trouble finding the business? It might not be on 411.ca. Add it.

Caller identified herself as calling from 411.ca, said she wanted to check our online listing at 411.ca, I said we didn';t have an online listing. I checked 411.ca for our legal business name and the short form usually used. Both times the response was "Hmmm, we don't have any listing for this firm within 100 Km of "Our Town, Sask.".

Did a reverse phone number search of our business number that "their" staff member had just called at 411.ca, results: "We did not find a phone number matching 306-123-4567".

Methinks this is a scam outfit plishing the 411.ca phone number.

Call from this number received Nov 8  and before.  When picked up - no one there.
