I have received numerous phone calls from this telephone number. I never answer as I do not know anyone in the 416 area code. I have had about 30 calls from this number at various time of day and night. I have never answered, there is never a message just a hang up when the machine comes on????
I too have received too many calls from this number. I'm chronically ill and honestly fed up with how many telemarketing calls, both legal and illegal, I still get despite being on the do no call list and the i opt out list. Today someone again called from this number, this time leaving a message that sounded like someone yawning. It wasn't static. This afternoon my dad phoned this number to tell them to stop calling or lose our support. I never would have thought we'd get to the point we'd be willing to do that, but just because it's a charity doesn't mean anything goes, and we aren't going to reward them anymore for nonsense like this. My dad was on hold, with the exact same music playing over and over, for over 30 minutes. He finally hung up. Now he's trying a different number for World Vision, and for having such a ridiculous system that makes a person be on hold that long and not able to leave a message, he's stopping donations for a month and then resuming, and next time it'll be for good. WORLD VISION: THERE ARE OTHER CHARITIES WE CAN DONATE TO INSTEAD! So don't even try to say we're punishing the child instead of you. Why not try treating your supporters a little better? When we signed up, we looked forward to spending our time relating to this on things like letters and stickers, etc, for the children, not on ridiculous telemarketing nonsense.
