If you get a call from this number it means that your phone has dialled 911. Protocol for receiving 911 calls with no one on the line (pocket dials, abandoned calls (hang ups) is to call back - minimum of two times. The 4934 number does not accept incoming calls because the 911 centre only receives calls from the 911 line or local non-emergency calls. If you dial 911 it will NOT show up in your call/log history to prevent future accidental calls. If you call back on non-emergency and have to wait it means non-emergency operators are helping to answer emergency calls which take first priority. They cannot "clear" your phone number...any call that comes into a 911 centre will register and they will call it back each and every time and if they know your location (e.g. landline) police can be sent as well to check on you. What people should do to prevent pocket dials is...store cells carefully (in a case is best), keep them locked, don't preprogram 911 into any phone, if you dial accidentally, don't hang up - stay on line (if you know you have dialled by mistake) and ask your cell phone manufacturer to produce phones with better safeguards. These things will greatly assist all 911 centres.

Called twice in a row, left no message. The phone was off for several days due to being out of town then once turned on was sitting on the coffee table charging with no one touching it. I did NOT dial 911!
If this is a legit police number E-comm better look into this!

THIS IS CORRECT. They'll be asking you questions to confirm your safety, and won't be asking you for your SIN number or banking information (eye roll). You'll likely be asked if you can speak freely and would be able to tell the operator if you were in trouble.
Also, your cell phone will not show a 911 call made in your call history. It is that way for safety, in case you are in a duress situation, so that your phone does not show you've dialed 911. In addition to that, many phones are set to dial 911 simply by holding down a single key...as you might imagine, this can cause butt dials and purse dials very easily. Check with your cell service provider to confirm this.
If a 911 operator is calling you back, and you hang up on them in ignorance because you do not realize your phone has dialed without your knowledge, there are procedures that they are required to follow to confirm your safety. You might consider how much time this takes away from answering other, legitimate, life and death emergency calls. Answer the safety questions and carry on with your day.

a voice message left on my service was a very quickly rattled off message about my vehicle having been removed and then, oddly, about it now being safe to drive. My vehicle was where it always was, and there is nothing illegal about the way it is parked or being driven. ????

Called me buy hung up.Call back gave automated Not in service msg.Only an hour earlier I'd called RCMP Baby to report intoxicated man and again 20 minutes ago.
it is vancouver police
My phone was locked but I guess it click emergency call. Its a blackberry 9700. Tends to do that a lot I guess. The police called back, a woman asking if everything was all right. I was very skeptical asked for badge number and called back on the non emergency phone line and could find the same police woman by telling the badge number and time called. They knew my adress and name and sent someone to check how everything was. Two police showed up in full uniform so its real.

this number also showed up on my phone anthonyinmanitoba @ live.com
figured it out
Just replyng to my own posting here:I called the Van Police Non-emerg line just now and told them what happened. They confirmed that it IS their number. She even told me that if you tried calling it back it would say it is out of service as it is a dispatch numeber only. Cell phones can go into "non emerg call" mode and dial 911 even if your phone is locked. And apparently it doesnt' show up on your call display that you called. It's all good...call van police non-emerg yourself if you're worried, cause that's what i did! Dont' worry people... your info is safe if you gave it out. That's what i was so worried about...cheers!
