I hav ereceived 27 phone calls from these people ove the last 4 days!!!! I have left them messages stating to ceist and desist calling. I have advised C Gonsalves via voice mail that I work for an attorney and I have been tracking their calls. Also I would be pressing charges if they ever called my home after 9pm est again .. when I call back get a recording stating it's the general information line and to leave a message.. anyone have any ideas besides driving up there???
The 416-850-1521 is still at it. I just got a call from that number at 9:05am today (Sunday, September 23). Hopefully, Leo's complaint will get the CRTC to shut these guys down soon. From the thread, it looks like they've been at it for a while.
Thanks Leo.
I just got a call from these people too, at 9:12pm and there was nobody on the line. I checked my phone log and they call almost every day but never answer.
I got the information from reverse lookup that the number is registered to C. Gonsalves, 66 Orpington Cres., Toronto ON M3H 6A7. They don't leave a message on the answering machine and I never answer a long distance ring.
I made an official complaint to the CRTC after reading this forum.
Thank you for contacting the CRTC regarding your concerns. For your reference, here is a link to our Fact Sheet on the rules applicable to telemarketing activities. It explains how these issues are handled and recommends that you contact your telephone service provider for assistance. It can be viewed at: http://www.crtc.gc.ca/eng/INFO_SHT/t1022.htm
The Commission expects telephone service providers to exchange information about their respective subscribers who are receiving unsolicited telemarketing calls or who are conducting telemarketing activities using their network or facilities. Ultimately, service providers can bring unresolved matters to the attention of the Commission.
