Register with "National Stop Call List"....Stop the madness!!!!

I had a call from this number at 8:45 as well. I tried to call it back and it rang many times with no answer. BLOCK this number

okay so 6:32pm on a Saturday evening I received a phone call from this lady who spoke in a more enigmatic fashion than those MLM promoters do when they first see you. She asked whether I liked hockey , which is sort of personal but I said I don't know what hockey is. Showing regret she listed a bunch of free gifts she had for me : a dinner for 2, a digi cam and hockey tickets. Then she said: " I dont want anything from you" and  I said : "I find that  hard to believe as we have been talking for over 2 mins now and you have yet to highlight the reason for your call" and she said : " I am going to have to call you back." and hung up. I googled the number and this thread popped up. I registered a complaint with DNCL but I think it is very important that every one who is annoyed by this telemarketer register a complaint and get a motion going against the company as, there are many vulnerable people in our society/community who can fall prey to these scammers and unwillingly sustain this unwanted nuisance.p.s. Bell Canada is no good too, never do a reauthorized payment setup with them. If they jack you, good-luck getting the money back. I don't know why we have a huge capitalist network setup but little effective intelligence checking up on corporations. BBB also, in effect, seems impotent(just like the UN). I thought Canada was well known for its consumer satisfaction practices. But if a company like Bell Canada can fraud its customers in broad daylight then the micro-scammers have a long time before any effective agency can catch them. (in sincere hopes that DNCL proves me wrong by taking some action against the scammers! or no wait are they in the same league too? like the antivirus companies need computer viruses in order to profit, they too probably need the scammers to keep their jobs, so no scammers (possibly)= no jobs for them, hmmm could it be? I wonder...)

I have Shaw as well so appreciated the instructions from Pissed Off. I have now blocked this caller

I got the same call. are you all from Vancouver?

The only way I could get rid of this obnoxious caller (a male speaking very quickly in what appeared to be an East Indian accent) was to hang up. He did know my name. My usual "I'm not interested" got me nowhere. I called my provider, Shaw, and they don't do anything about this sort of nuisance calling, so they told me to block the number.
I then registered a complaint with the CRTC @: https://www.lnnte-dncl.gc.ca/plt-cmp-eng
If enough of us register, perhaps they'll do something about it, though I'm not optimistic. I've been receiving even more of these calls in the last two months, not fewer.
