Caller: Scotiabank

Had a FREE gift for me. A $5,000 insurance policy. Ya right. Nothing's free.

BTW, sounde like a call centre. Hear all kinds of workers talking in background. IF, - Scotiabank, shame on them. A call centre in operation during the pandemic. Disgusting...

better yet just block the number this is what i do every time i get some of those it take about 10 sec

Just read through all the comments. They just called. I never pick up if I don't recognize the number. I'm registered on the DNC (do not call) list in Canada and still they call. I will be looking to report them to the Canadian DNC agency with is Government and enforces FCC regulations. Maybe they'll be able to shut them up for good.

i have no clue who this person just called and didnt even answer to see who it is wish they stop calling me

They are getting the phone numbers from the clients who hire them.   So for example if you are getting calls from someone saying they are from scotia bank then the client is scotia bank.    The client would also have told them what to say and do on the call.   To a call center its a numbers game.   an agent will call 300-400 numbers and maybe get 1-3 sales in a day.   Its the 1-3 sales that count and not the people who hang up or say they aren't interested.   The clients dont care they know people will be ticked off.   The agents just usually laugh and move on to the next number, unless its someone who has morals and quits.   And the reason they are so pushy is because its all hard selling.  They are told if they dont get any sales they lose their job.  So they do everything they can to get a sale.

They call every day for weeks now, usually between 8 and 9 pm. Most annoying that they call after my son is in bed, causing him to awaken sometimes, asking "who's calling?".
I have registered with the Canadian Marketing Association on a do-not-call list, and that has stopped Bell Canada from incessantly calling me. Now if only everyone would refer to the CMA's do-not-call list.

what the hell why are they calling optima is the name of the company thats calling us

Calls everyday and doesnt leave a message. I have never answered their calls as I didnt recognize the area code. I just reported them to the government

These scum-sucking parasites phoned again today (Optima).My goal is to find out their home phone numbers, and then phone them at approximately the same time they phone me.(as they say, "turnabout is fair play")Here's what my e-mails to them said:1.  Remove my home phone number from your database immediately, and confirm to me that you have completed this action.2.  I have filed a formal complaint with the CRTC, since you have not provided me with the option of replying to your voicemail and opting out of your parasitic harassment.3.  I look forward to contacting you at your residence during your leisure time (or better yet, at some disproportionately inconvient time when my phone call will disrupt your life and incovenience you as much as you have done so to me today) to discuss this further.
