They have called my cell phone for the past three nights, but I won't pick up. It's a long-distance number, so I'm not getting billed just to do a stupid survey. If they want results, they should call from a toll-free number. I'd pick that up.

They called me at 10pm wanting to do a survey who calls that late at night considering it's a Toronto number and where i live there is a 3 hour time difference. That means it was 1am in Toronto

If the call center is based outside of this country (and many are based in India or other Asian countries), Canada's "Do Not Call" law CAN'T TOUCH THEM.

Also, if you've ever put your name on a list for "further information" or sometimes even entered a contest, the contest rules often say that you're giving permission for that company, or their agent (which could be this call center) to call you from then on. READ THE FINE PRINT before you EVER enter a contest or sign on for online newsletters or emails for ongoing updates or info.

It's a call center. Look, whenever these guys call, just tell them to take your number off the list -- that'll put a halt to the calling. And if they do manage to call again, speak to the supervisor. I work at a call center currently, and believe me, it is annoying, so just remember the magic words: "Take my number off the list"
