Received a call from this # this morning. No Caller Id was on the display only the number. When I answered the women on the line asked if she was talking to "and she referenced the name on a bank account". I asked who she was and why she was calling she said she was doing a survey for the RBC. Told her never to call again and hung up. Contacted RBC to report and they indicated that there should be no survey calls on their behalf unless its to follow-up on something related to the account. Just a heads up this is probably a scam how they got the account name (it's very unique) is beyond me.

I too received a call from this number (416) 233-0047. The person was just breathing through the phone which sounded very scary and I said “hello!” two times and I hang up. I went online to reverse the number to see who it is; I see that a lot of other people also have received strange phone call from this number.

The best thing to do is to call the police and report his/her sorry ass. Which I did, I wrote an email and report it through phone. If everyone here to do what I did, I am sure he will put back in jail where he belongs.

I'd researched this number online to see if was a telemarketing call....Glad I did!They keep calling my cell phone. And they never leave a message when I don't answer.

It is from Market Probe.

The guy responsible for all the telemarketers is:
Senior Vice President, Research and Operations: Mr. Tim McCutcheon, M. A. home address and phone: (416) 439-3872. 733 Scarborough Golf Club Rd. Toronto
He is also on Linketh

I have been receiving calls from this number for the last two days. The first time I didn't answer. The second time I did, and it was a girl on the other side. She asked for me by my full name, and then hung up. Considering my phone is a cell phone, how the hell did this person get my number. I called back the number, and at first I got the busy signal, then I got ringing, but no answer!!! Any body have any idea who this person is?

caled company they do not work for RBC they work for some other comapny they bought list from RBC, call continuosly until someone answered suggetst everyone call and complain to government and bank.  called looking for my daughter(minor) at 11 pm pacific time very suspicious will call rbc monday to file complaint

Have had this number call numerous times this week...I've already blocked the number on my phone so that when it calls, it rings 1/2 a ring and then they get a message that says we are not answering this number...very cool.  Hopefully RBC is doing something about this if it is calling people on their behalf.  Very annoying.

Hi guys, I just want to clear a few things up for you annoyed people. 1) If a company calls to do a SURVEY, then the DO NOT CALL LIST DOESN'T APPLY (look it up if you don't believe me, survey companies are exempt)2) If the company calls you and you hang up, they WILL call you back because it's an automated dialer and they have NO control as to how many times you get called a day. That's what automated dialers do.3) It's not the people conducting the surveys fault that you get called, it's the company they are doing the survey for, so no need to be rude to them. They're doing their job, so talk to the company whose PAYING them to do the survey4) It's not a scam, listen to what they say before you cut them off, if they ask for personal information then don't answer the question, but I've taken the call and they don't ask personal questions5) THEY CANNOT REVEAL WHO THE SURVEY IS FOR UNLESS THEY ARE SPEAKING TO THE PERSON ON FILE. (This is for the privacy of the individual, you don't know how many times husbands and wives actually find out their spouse has a secret account, so if the person reveals who the survey is for, it could cause for more problems). This has happened numerous times, so they're doing it to protect the client. 6) Like I said before, it is NOT THEIR FAULT for calling you, it is the company paying them to do the survey, no need to be rude to them, (unless they are rude to you) but hear them out before you hang up or else they will put you down for a call backPS. If they don't answer right away, it's because they are using an automated dialer so it takes a while for them to hear you, so again, that isn't their fault. Just kindly asked to be put on THEIR OWN do not call list, and they should happily oblige.

For the last 2 weeks I received 2 sometimes 3 times a day a call from this number, when I took the phone but did not answer the line was disconnected. Finally yesterday again no answer but when I said hello a man answered asking for me he said that he is calling about a survey. I told him not to call again and now I will wait and see if this number calls again.FWM4

regular calls, no voicemail
