Who ever calls does not leave a message. I received three calls from this number and ttook it once. A registered women voice talks (fast) about a credit card application and asks to press a number... I hung up.
"Financial Consulting Services" offers help in reducing credit card debit by negotiating a reduced rate with your credit card company. This company refuses to disclose their real name, address, telephone number or website. When I asked to speak to a supervisor, I was hung up on. This is NOT a real business. Report the call to CRTC Do Not Call and to PhoneBusters.
I have traced this number to Victoria B.C. and is unpublished. The number is 250-412-8815. This is a credit card scam. The RCMP should be able to nail, because this is stealing from people.
These people call all the time to ask to give me a better credit card rate. they are so rude they hang up when you ask them to take you off of their list,
This is the first time I have seen this number(250-412-8815) on my phone and I was hello, hello, and no one said nothing,
Worst part is the DNC list is useless, as I understand it unregistered companies and out of Canada companies do not have to adhere to the DNC list. But all companies can get the list and the unregistered ones or the ones outside of Canada now use it as a CALL list.
Now to help combat this I have purchased a Panasonic cordless phone system, it allows me to add 5 phone numbers to a call block list, now you need to have at least number ID on your phone line, but once I add your number to the list and you call here, it rings once, compares the number to the block list, if its not in there the phone rings and announces out load the name or number, if the number is in the list it stops ringing on my end, it answers the pone and sends a generated busy signal, or a dead number signal..
Now if they would just update the base unit which stores all this info so we can have a much larger number lists.
Might have to take it apart and see if I can add a bigger memory chip to it.
