Hi guys, this number isn't a phoney number, some companies use it to push numbers through other providors to lower costs. Our service - FreePhoneLine is a VoIP service that is, well, free. This number is a generic numbers most companies use to push the call through Bell, Rogers, Primus, Comcast etc... When they don't like the number, or don't like the fact that we want to run through their service without paying them they block the number or get a bit touchy on who they let through.

Got a call from this number too.. no answer.. :P

This number (416) 642-0882 asked for me by first name. The man said he calling regarding Education plans for kids. He asked me personal questions, I refused to answer and asked him how he got my name and phone number, he was so rude, he replied "you don't need to know" .  After asking him several times how he got my name and number he told me to "GO TO BED" and hung the phone up.  This is very strange...I will report it to Bell in the morning.  Caller ID Unknown

This number is from FreePhoneLine.ca and appears when the FreePhoneLine number is called by a caller that is blocking their ID.

That is...

1) "Bill" has a FreePhoneLine.ca (FPL) number which he can forward to any other number in Canada (like his cell)
2) "Jane" calls Bill's FPL number but she decides to block her number so that he doesn't know what number she is calling from
3) Bill receives an incoming call on his cell and sees (416) 642-0882 on his call display

What is unfortunate with Canada and their so called "Do Not Call List" Apparently it has done the opposite. Somebody or somehow got these registered numbers and after giving your number to the government for private agencies to stop calling you. You get your number sold to scam artists to call you whenever they want and both you as if you have nothing better to do then to talk to some indian guy trying to sell you something.

It is pathetic.

I got called six times from the same number in one day!They would begin the phone call by asking if I could speak Chinese and then once I said "Yes" the lady went on and on. I hung up she called back. I told her not to call again in English and she said " I think you can speak Chinese". It's so annoying. DON"T PICK UP if you get a call from this number !!!
