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 got the same call, the young girl asked for my husband.  I told her that he was not home and she hung up!!  Then, the next day they called again.  I asked what it was about and they said they wanted to only speak to my husband about our finances... I told that finances in my household involves me too and I my number is privately listed, so therefore you need to id yourself or remove me from you call list.  She said it was customer service.  I told them I don't want solliciting calls and remove me from your list.

I live in Vancouver...  I go this Phone CALL 1-(416) 233-0047 right after I got 1-231-732-2879.1-231-732-2879 SOUNDS like those shopping TV ads..  " wow, you are so LUCKY.  you won a discount trip to CanCUN.. 6 days and 9 nights"WTF.. It sounds too GOOD to be TRUE..I wish I can f***ing reach into the microphone part of the PHONE and stuff tons of LOAD of S**T down his F***ING throat.!!!

This phone number was used to call me when I was working, I answered the call and they finished it.My phone is registered in the no call list, they seem to do not care about it.

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.

1 (416) 233-0047 called at 9:38 to-day no message left...

Ever since I opened a bank account with RBC I have been getting calls from strange numbers including (416) 233-0047. I have been very careful to never give out my phone number for exactly thisd purpose. It is very obvious to me that RBC are selling there clients phone numbers or at trhe very least passing them on. I woould suggest that anyone being bothered by these calls look back  and they will likely be able to trace a connection to RBC. Personally I think it is appauling for a persdonal bank to be acting in this manner. Thye just lost one new customer send them the same message.
