Oslo? Norway? Financial powerhouse that it is....seriously???This clearly isn't ING although they are vainly trying to create the multi-national facade.They won't last long at this rate....any dimwit can tell you that simply PLACING many phone calls does not yield many dollars...staff and office space cost money.As such, collections agencies come and go like ticks on a dog's arse. (In this analogy, the debtor would be the dog and the collector the arse-sucker).By necessity they change names and phone numbers frequently. It is the only means by which to maintain commercial viability. The more frequently the debtor can identify the collector, the less effective the cat-and-mouse game becomes.It seems to me that even "unknown" and "spoofed" phone numbers have also become rather ineffective ploys. A lot of people simply rely on voicemail and number familiarity as opposed to answering their phone because it happened to ring.Maybe you guys should move into the current millenium and try something on social networking...you know...."out" them....Given that these networks are ultimately used to stroke people's egos and tailor images, it would be a pretty effective way to garner your desired response. Nothing quite destroys a public image like financial issues...except maybe sexual issues...

I got two calls to my cell phone from this number - who are they and what are they looking for?

this number (519) 963-8180 continues to call my house at least every other day with a pre-recorded message for someone who does not live at my number, and hasn't for at least the last 15 years, as that is how long I have had this number. I refuse to call it back, I have placed a trace on the number, and after a certain number of calls the police will now be handling the matter as I will be charging the company with harassment.

got a call from this number voicemail just said "will be with you in a minute" and that was it. a prerecorded voice

Thank you to all for the info. i don't answer calls from #'s i don't know. The retarded message about "Will be with you in a minute" don't mean nothing to me. They want something put it in writing.If it aint in writing it don't exist.
