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.

When I was an account manager at a bank and made calls to clients, you had to be careful about what you say. For example: It's dfm at RBC, is Sally Jones available? No. What's this in regards to?Just wanted to see if she was happy with her services and if there's anything we can help with. Um, Sally and I only bank at TD.-silence--later that night-Sally has to confess that she's got her own personal stash going on from an inheritence that she's using as a security cusion since her husband has a bad gambling problem and they may be on the rocks.This type of scenario plays out more than you would realize. Just because you and your spouse have total trust in each other doesn't mean that it's the same - or should be the same - for other couples.

Relax everyone this is a legitimate survey company and they are calling on behalf of RBC, I just did the survey and NO personal questions were asked, it was strictly using a number rating on my recent visit to an RBC branch and how the staff did. I personally prefer being called for a survey, it was fast and efficient. I hate doing email surveys and I do not have time to complain if I feel I am getting crap treatment, this way is anonymous and they will ask if they can share your survey with the company at the end and you can say no if you do not want the staff to know it was you. Since RBC has been using Market Probe I notice a huge difference in service in my branch; it went from meh service to great service in a matter of a few months. Too bad more companies do not do this.

This number called my number 3 times within a 2 hour period, but I didn't pick up. Only people who want to trick you into giving up your personal information would be so persistent. And if it is that important that they need to call you 3 times, they would have left a message and asked you to call back. I have a feeling it must be some kind of scam. Be careful!

called Market Probe 419-233-1555 about why they were calling, it was a survey about a recent visit to RBC. You can (as I did) to be placed on the do not call list.

Have called several times in the past few days. No message. MOST annoying. I've blocked the caller.
