UBC soliciting for donations.

Good point. If you were a student, as I was, there you already paid them several thousands.

UBC looking for money. Telling you how much they think is a suitable donation. Had to hang up because declining to donate just lead to a debate. Very annoying.

They keep calling. Must be donation. No message at all. Annoying

Hung up before I could answer. Caller ID says University BC.

I haven't answered...4 calls in five days

received a phone call from (604) 827-4173, very strange, ask me name an address. something about being a UBC fundraiser. I did not give her my name let alone my address.

I got a call on my cell phone voicemail from this number on 1/8/09 at the equivalent of 5:21 PM Vancouver time.  No message either.

I have been getting calls from this number over 3 months. One time I answered but I told I would be heading out the door - so they said they would call back. It is usually after 8pm, but it was Saturday at 3pm this time around. I am an UBC alumni so it makes sense that I get calls from them. After finding out who they were, I never answer the call...........

the best option is to answer, decline, and then explicitly ask them to remove you from their calling list. the list may be regenerated after a while but that should by you time. good luck.

don't get on the do-no-call-list. I heard they're just selling the numbers they get from that list to companies, so don't bother. Filing complaints won't do any good if they really are planning to sell them. Not picking up is the best solution.

I too have been getting calls from this # over the last 2 days, but I have never had an association with UBC so it's quite alarming that they would have my phone #. Plus, they call as late as 8:45pm- how rude! I'll take your advice and not pick up. Thanks
