These guys have been calling me 3-times a week for over a year now. Everytime I told them that 1) I am on the National Do-Not-Call Registry. And 2) I have Electric Baseboard heaters... so no ducts. Finally in August I got fed up, and everytime they call I book an appointment. I have since had four such appointments, and two no-shows. where a "technician" came to my house, asked me where my furnace was, and I showed him the baseboard heaters. They always leave after five minutes, and then return with a cell-phone in hand asking me to talk to their manager in Toronto (I'm in Ottawa). Each time it was the same: We'll remove you from our calling list. I still get the calls, and I still intend to book the appointments. If they want to bother me, I will waste their time and money. Each time they have called, they supplied me with different contact information for their company. Here are all the phone numbers they have provided me:(613) 552-0660 - Apparently the number for a Law Firm, not a Duct Cleaner(416) 410-5680 - A private number of an irate man who claims to have no knowledge of Duct Cleaners647-852-DUCT (3828) - A temporarily disconnected number (this number was even on the "technician's" hat and work shirt.)(647) 785-1900 - Number is perpetually busy "person can't take your call right now..."(416) 800-0799 - Number does not accept calls from unregistered numbers(416) 800-0798 - Spoke to "Peter Parker..." who assured me that my number would be removed from their call list. Well, if Spiderman can't get my number removed, who can?That's all I know.

I did report them to the Canadian Anti Fraud Centre and I suggest the rest of you do the same thing.It takes more than one person to nab these A.H.   I have been documenting the calls since September and I suggest the rest of you do the same thing. After they call you, pickup the line they just called you on and dial *57.  This allows the Police to trace the call.   Get enough of the calls, then report it to the Police.I have done my share by posting what I know maybe everyone else can do the same thing.  Read through enough of the numbers they are calling from that have been reported and you too will start piecing things together.  When a person files a complaint with the Police, they speak on their own behalf and not for everyone else.I suggest you all start documenting.

Hey there I just saw the story on CBC Marketplace. I suspect this piece of garbage guy probably contacts the Via Connections to help him advertise his business.

Has anyone else received a call from a person from Cool Breathe? ?He states that it will cost $110.00 to clean your air ducts and someone will come and take a look at your furnace and inspect your air conditioning as well?  Cash only though.  I tried to look for this company to no avail and return the phone call and the number doesn't work.  Please let me know if you have any information.  I don't want someone showing up at my door!

Got a call from Andy Marshal today and he said they would do complete air duct cleaning.  The cost would be $135.00 cash and they would clean all hot air and cold air ducts.  They would also use an herbal sanitizer.  He said the name of the company is "Air Duct Cleaning Service".  The phone number to reach them at is (416) 800-0798.  I called and it said that the number was not in service.  I can't verify the company nor the phone number.  They also gave me a reference number BX7650.  So if and when they get here it will not be a go.

Taken from the InternetFresh Air Duct Cleaning Services just called me and said they were a division of BSR Enterprises where Mr Balarm is the 'lawyer' according to the agent James Michael. They called and we are on the DNC list and I was told that 'Mr Balarm does not care and is a rich lawyer who can do what he wants.' After much debate with the agent...he wouldn't let up...he began swearing at me telling me to F*&% Off repeatedly. I registered a complaint at the DNC website with bothe Mr James Michael's name and that of Mr Balarm as well...I hope they can do something about it...
