Received a call from this # this morning. No Caller Id was on the display only the number. When I answered the women on the line asked if she was talking to "and she referenced the name on a bank account". I asked who she was and why she was calling she said she was doing a survey for the RBC. Told her never to call again and hung up. Contacted RBC to report and they indicated that there should be no survey calls on their behalf unless its to follow-up on something related to the account. Just a heads up this is probably a scam how they got the account name (it's very unique) is beyond me.

I too received a call from this number (416) 233-0047. The person was just breathing through the phone which sounded very scary and I said “hello!” two times and I hang up. I went online to reverse the number to see who it is; I see that a lot of other people also have received strange phone call from this number.

The best thing to do is to call the police and report his/her sorry ass. Which I did, I wrote an email and report it through phone. If everyone here to do what I did, I am sure he will put back in jail where he belongs.

I'd researched this number online to see if was a telemarketing call....Glad I did!They keep calling my cell phone. And they never leave a message when I don't answer.

It is from Market Probe.

The guy responsible for all the telemarketers is:
Senior Vice President, Research and Operations: Mr. Tim McCutcheon, M. A. home address and phone: (416) 439-3872. 733 Scarborough Golf Club Rd. Toronto
He is also on Linketh

I am on the National do not call list and they still call.  The male caller knew my name and unlisted number.  When I asked who was calling, he said it was about a market survey.  When I asked what the survey was about, he sighed and hung up.  I called back and no answer.  I called a few minutes later and the line was busy.  I have filed a complaint with CRTC.  (Just google National Do not call list and follow the links to file a complaint).  Everyone should complain as they are relentless.

a girl call for my husband she ask for his correct name, when i ask if she want to leave a message she hang up the phone,

I am on the DO NOT CALL list and this caller needs to stop calling. I do not know them and they might as well stop because there is nothing here for them.I hang up before interdiction.

I received a call from this number today.  A young girl called me by my first name that I never use and no last name.  She said she wanted to do a survey with me about RBC.  I told her no and she just said ok and hung up.  I then called my local branch and told them about the call.  Then I called the company associated with the number, Market Probe Canada Phone: (416) 233-1555, and the lady who answered the phone was very nice to talk to.  She said that Market Probe Canada has been hired by RBC and Canadian Tire to make survey calls.  She said that they have a lot of teenagers working for them that are not very professional on the phone.  She apologized to me and said she would remove my number from their system.  She  told me to call Royal Bank 1-800-royal-11 and ask them about Market Probe Canada.  I called the Royal bank 800 number and after a few minutes the guy told me that yes, RBC uses this company for survey information.  I asked him why my number was given out since I am registered to not have calls from RBC.  He said he did not know and that it should not have happened.

what a bunch of do***e bagsi guess it's market research if you want to test the limits of civility

just answered the call from this number - a man asked for my daughter and when I indicated that she was not home and could I take a message, he answered " that will not be necessary".  Totally creeped me out - glad to see this is not a one-off.
