This number has come up on my display several times and only says Brit. Columbia.  I answered this time and he had a very strong accent and asked for Mr or Mrs and then part of my last name.  I told him he had the wrong number and then he asked for the home owner.  We rent and so I told him that the home owner doesn't live at this number, politely told him good by and hung up.  I made a note on my calendar of the number and time in case they phone again.  I pay to have un-known callers blocked and this ticks me off to no end!

Called again.  Answered in German and proceeded to say I didn't understand, again in German.  She asked for me but pronounced the last name wrong (imbecile).  Kept asking 'what' in German.  She finally got fed up.  LOVE IT.  They waste my time and I'll bloody well waste theirs.

At 12:41 today (Sept 13, 2010) I had a call from (778) 783-1190.  I picked up and said "Hello". After a brief delay a man with deep voice and foreign accent (eastern Europe or middle East) asked to speak to Mrs "[my Surname]" which was odd because my mother is dead and my ex re-married. I asked who was calling and the purpose of the call. There was another pause, about 5 seconds, during which I heard other voices and music (which I did not recognize) playing in the background.  The caller muttered something I could not understand.  I asked the caller to put someone on the phone who could speak English.  After another pause the caller muttered something again so I picked up my metal coach's whistle, blew into the phone, and hung up.  I'm on the "Do Not Call" list and use my metal whistle for back-up protection.  I encourage others to get a whistle for this purpose.  :)

Have fun with the *ssholes!  Spoke German and really messed with them. lol

The number appears on my call display as out of area despite it being a 778 number. Sax music played for about 30 seconds and then someone with a strong mexican accent answered. She didn't seem to know who I was so I hung up.

This number has come up on my call display day after day, 2 to 3 times a day for the last 2 months comes up as Brit. Columbia.  I answered last week and it sounded like it was an overseas call, loud air noise.  I kept saying hello then hung up as no one replied.  Tonite the number came up again, so I decided to answer, said hello then canned music came on.  I hung up.  It's becoming really annoying.  I'm not sure what my recourse is. Is there someone to call to complain and if so do they do anything.  This is a reall pain in the butt.
