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 just got a phone call from this number, the women asked for my husband by his first and last name, no middle name though,  when I said he was not available and could I please take a message for him, the women quickly said no she would call back, I asked if she was sure she did not want to leave a message and she said she would try again later, this struck me as odd, being that if you call a persons house and they are not available usually one would leave a message or why are they calling, I googled the phone number and got this thread................Thank you!

got call from (416) 233-0047 who ever own this number. stop calling my number ok.

looks like this last reply may work for one of these outbound call centers, well lady, or man, get a f *en life, we very busy people have more to do with our time than sit around doing some survey that will take an hour to complete, listening to some stupied a** on the phone ramble on.  Loss our numbers, get a real job, and get a life, stop bothering us people.so you think you are the only people who put theirself through school, i did all by myself, and while i was doing it i didn't have to bother anyone.Don't you people just get the f*** hint.GO AWAY!

they're still doing it many years on

I recieved a call today. He asked for my son by his first name only. I stated that he was not home and asked if I could take a message, he said no but would call back. I asked again if he would leave a message and he refused. I told him not to bother calling back. My son happens to have a RBC account!! We are in Nova Scotia.
