Just got the same call over two nights. Before giving any info I asked for their number and Clarice said I was entered into a draw on september 17 for $500 for any store!!!! They also said I won either a trip for two or a Slapchop. I said I would take the slapchop and she said that's great ... Its what most people take!!!! Anyways I got their number and she said her company was Meditech group which was weird cuz the survey yesterday was about recycling. Anyways I have no intention of calling back but thought I would still report it

On checking further, I found this 2010 decision by the CRTC against a company (Breathe E-Z Homes Ltd.) who used SPT to do surveys just like this (http://www.crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/2010/2010-572.htm). They got people to agree (or not disagree) to a followup if they won a prize, but they sold that phone list to a company who then used it to target consumers (thus telemarketing, even to people on the DNC). They were fined the ridiculously low sum of $2,000, and either they or another company must have decided it's worth that little bit to try it again. (The website for SPT given in the footnotes no longer exists.)

got a call tonight from (604) 998-8841 - thought they said they were from ESEO???Asked the usual questions as per above recycling, smoker ect ... her name was Michelle, when we got to the end end she asked for my name. When I refused to provide a name she said I had to supply one. I explained it was a survey and no name was required. She actually argued with me when I told it was MRS. and refused to give her one. After telling her she could use MRS or nothing and terminated the call, she called me back ??? Since the time was now 9:04 EST I picked up the phone saying "Michelle, the time is now 9:04 EST and you are in violation of Ontario calling laws put your manager on the line." She pretended she could not hear me and terminated the call - lol - will definitely get more info if they call again --- by the sounds of it from previous post I will most likely hear from them again

Got a call Saturday night - I demanded that the caller identify herself by ID number and she refused. Got angry when I persisted and eventually hung up on me! Before hanging up she had a man come on the call. My advice is take control of the conversation and: 1. clearly state to them that the conversation is being recorded and when they acknowledge that then 2. state that you are registered with the government on the Do Not Call List and that the recording will be forwarded to the government along with their ID/name. Be persistent about asking for their ID and tell them repeatedly that you want to be taken off their call list and eventually they will hang up on you
