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

They called again just now.  I just picked up and hung up the phone.  

The reason they ended the survey was because they filled their quota for your branch. The survey would have included questions about the teller you dealt with and customer service experience.

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.

This number has been calling my cell phone for the past week, on business hours, so I was working and couldn't answer. Today they called on a SATURDAY! around noon and when I answered, no one said anything.Just to piss them off I called back probably about 25 times... just let my phone ring on speaker while doing other things for a while. Never an answer. Then I found the number for Market Probe Canada on here and called them. I asked to speak to a manager or supervisor. He told me he was the manager, but didn't sound convincing so I had him spell out his first and last name for me. I told them to put me on the Do Not Call List but also asked why they are calling so often. He told me they do survey's. So I said "what does it accomplish to hang up in peoples ear? Nobody says anything when I answer, I don't consider that a survey" and he said "well, it's a computerized device that keeps calling over and over, not a person" so I said "I just don't see the point in having a computer dial peoples numbers without getting any answers or anything, it is absolutely pointless, just extremely annoying" and he started stuttering and mumbling, saying the same thing he already told me, with not much of an explanation. I asked how he got my cell phone number. He said probably from RBC so call and ask them to put you on a Do Not Call List as well. It is so annoying!!!

just received a call from this number for the tenth time in two weeks they call asking for me full name when i say speaking they hang up.

This numbers calls about once a day and there is no one speaking on the other end.  They hang up after about 20 seconds, and I can hear them hanging up the phone.  makes me think they are calling to check if we are home?
