Thanks for the info, Rusty. I called Erin Coe on her direct line and she has assured me that the calls will stop within 24 hours. Once again, her direct line is (604) 661-7902.

Yeah, I used to work at CBV Collections as a System/Network Admin. That number was used by the Automatic dialler we used, which I helped setup. Law states that you can either block your number (which most people don't answer on), or you have to use a number that you own - but it doesn't necessarily have to be one that you use, or is connnected. As for why you'd get the 'Please stay on the line', it's because a certain amount of agents are allocated on the dialler, and if they're all on in a call, or otherwise occupied, the callee was placed into a queue.

i called the number it just keeps ring - ring... and i have no debt.. so what the f*

HI, (778) 329-0347 is definitely a "collection agency"....in this case it's CBV (in Vancouver, B.C.) and they are trying to collect for Koodo(aka Telus) cellphone outstanding bill from an old cell. They have called as late as 8:30pm. They call sporadically a few times a week, then nothing, then a few times a week.Guess what fcukers?! I'll never answer and never pay!!!!!!  :)  If I had the $'s I would have paid the damn bill then!

I didn't answer the call - I assumed it was some sort of scam phone call.I never answer callers whose numbers I don't know- I check the web first...You can register complaints here: https://www.lnnte-dncl.gc.ca/plt-cmp-eng

I received this call twice in two days...it was an automated message saying something like, "You are being contacted about an important business matter!  Please stay on the line."   I hung up.  

If it is indeed a collection agency, they should have figured out by now that the person who had this number before hasn't had it for 3 1/2 years!!  How annoying!
