Yeah - I had the same call today and so did a friend of mine . . .apparently a mutual friend gave them our contact info (uh, thanks? Argh!!) - they thought they were doing us a favour as it would be a chance to win a trip to Vegas? Anyway - next time they call make sure you ask them to remove you from their telephone list (as I always do with any tel-licitors)
Called looking for a J. James. Wouldn't tell me who they were just would tell me about this deal they were broker specially for me. (Oh wow really!) The Caller ID Displayed WestCoast Promo. Called back and played stupid and said I was looking for Karen. They told me that I had reached the offices of Point 2 Point Destinations (ptpdestinations.com)
I just had a call from these guys about 5 min ago. I wonder how thay got my number as it's unlisted and they didn't ask for me. I will be calling TELUS to complain. I told the guy never call this number again or I would punch his lights out.

These [***] called, spoke to my wife, she told them she wasn't interested and then hung up. They then proceeded to call the house 9 more times that day, about every 45 minutes!!
They called back several days later spoke to me, I told them we're not interested. The women said she spoke to my wife, saying she was *very* interested. I replied she was lying, my wife is right here and told me she was not. She then *demanded* to speak to her! I told her never to call back and I wanted to speak to her manager. Some guy who I doubt was the manager said "this lady won't bug you any more".
Then a few days later another guy from point 2 point calls and tries it again. I'm pissed and say I'm not interested and I told you to take me off the calling list and now you've called me again and that must be against the law. He said they must have called some *other* number, I refused and said I want proof they've taken me off the list, I want his name and extension number, and that I'm going to be filing a complaint. He tells me his first name and then hangs up on me!
I fell for that 2 years ago ans still pay for my mistake!
If you end up going to any timeshare (RCI) presentation, make sure that you do your research and check the facts first and NEVER, NEVER, NEVER sign any contracts on the day and at the time of the presentation. Give yourself a chance to do the research.
