1. These guys are breaking the law using an ADAD to call. 2. I contacted Bell first, who just try to sell services, then the CRTC when Bell after 45 minutes 'said' they couldn't do anything. (been thru this process with them before)3. CRTC gave me Bell Executive office 1-+1 866-317-3382 who after giving story, tracked the company's phone provider GT Group Telecom, as well as a couple numbers to call to be removed from their call list.4. Provider is actually Rogers 1-+1 877-484-5101/">+1 877-484-5101. Lisa said she would forward complaint to abuse dept and have our number removed from contact list...told her that is fine BUT I also want this company's phone service terminated for violating the CRTC regulations using ADAD's. That way THEY have a consequence to breaking the law instead of people just hanging up on them etc. If THEY have to go through the trouble of getting a new phone line then THEY have a cost to incur!2. Bell tracked their serviceCalled us earlier in month but when I picked up it disconnected adad message. ADAD Business Funding Centre (613) 686-1295, Britanny Smith at Bell complaint c89903/800, She accidentally disconnected me so I called CRTC, he transferred me to CMA but these guys aren't members so I called CRTC back and he will have somebody call me. Britanny also gave me Bell email to have our number removed from Bell provided telemarketer lists at dir.ctr @ bell.ca. Joline from CRTC called us and said call bell executive office 1-+1 866-317-3382. Bell guy did google and found two numbers for being removed from business funding centre call list at 1-+1 800-591-6541, 1-+1 800-663-8525. They also have a website at sbfc.ca. Bell rep traced service provider to  gt group telecom contact number is +1 877-484-5101. Called that number and got Lisa at Rogers business solutions. She said they will contact them and have them remove us from call list and if we get calls after 4 days to call back. I said I want more than just removed, I want suspension of their service.   Service is nothing but a SCAM imo because anyone can just call the provincial/federal government to get info on business grants!Here is the link from the loser running the scam (imo)http://www.linkedin.com/in/trevortoronto

person called and said that they are with the goverment andwill gave information on what the fereral and provicial govermentcan help.with programs ro aid .

alors ils ont une option bilingue à leur message, sans toutefois avoir de numéro sans frais.  j'ai reçu ce message en français et le message était de très mauvaise qualité.  Je me demande toujours pourquoi moi???

I get calls soliciting the Small Business Funding Centre in Ottawa but the call display is a # from Iowa, 641-715-3900.  Totally a scam!

Dec. 7, 2007,
Can tell you it must be illegal because they are supposed to leave a Free
1-800 number to call back on.
I found website:
www.sbfc.ca
1-+1 800-591-6541 to request to be removed from list, remember to ask to be removed from all affiliated companies.

Dec 19, 2007 I had been receiving calls for past 2 weeks and normally it was an auto dialer calling me on a Sunday night. Caller claims to be Small Business Funding Centre. Seems fishy that they would not leave a 1-800 # to call back to if it was in fact the gov't of Canada. Also, the calls prompts you to press "1" on you phone if you do not want a gov't grant or are NOT starting a business and want to be removed from list. A couple more things sketchy about hte message. The recording makes several mistakes in setting his voice message but leaves them anyway rather then recording over the mistakes correctly. I doubt a government official would do this. Also, the message is in English only (normally Feds would have English and French message).When I called back to the 613068601295 number, I pressed 1, waited and got someone live. When I explained why I was calling, she said an attendant would be back to me. Nobody ever called back. I called again. This time after pressing "1" I was asked to stay on the line and that I could expect "DEAD" air but to rest assured; someone would be with me. Next thing I heard all kinds of crazy electronic noises. So, I hung up. I thin ksomeone was trying to use my phone number to make long distance calls or something.
