Received calls from this number 3 times today! Picked up and no answer on other end. Never leave a message either. Tried calling right back and got a recording, "The number you have dialed is not yet registered, please contact an administrator". Getting lots of calls from 289 area code numbers like this lately that are all "not in service". Would like to know how and why Bell Canada is permitting calls from non-registered phone numbers. Especially when we subscribe to all of their overpriced call privacy and screening services. Makes me suspect Bell is on these marketing scams. Taking money from us customers and from telemarketers.

I saw this number a few times on my call display already.
It better not be marketing from Bell. I just might switch with another phone provider and tell them to get lost. I got my phone registered on national do not call list, so Bell might be trying to screw us over by providing our numbers and some new scrambling equipment to telemarketers so that we cannot trace them.
P.S
I still can't belive that all those tv networks charge people for cable tv, just so that we can watch those idiotic brainwashing tv adds,which make them even more rich.
