I let it go to message, and then played the message back. It is Big Brother's Clothing Donations. It just annoys me that they don't display their name when they call the house.

I believe they now call from their home phones which is why we don't see any name on caller display

Caller: Big Bro

It is annoying that despite telling them no men's stuff to donate,they keep calling almost everyday wtf.It is an east indian woman calls over&over does not listen

They keep calling my cell. I don't care if it is Big Bros, I don't want to be bothered by unwanted calls, PERIOD. Unsolicited calls make me NOT want to support your cause.

Thanks for the great info folks and the like.....I never like answering phone numbers I do NOT recognize.
It's probably an old robo-phone call out system they use and it buggers up once in a while. It was cool to be able to google the number and find out what was up with that call I just got. Isn't technology great, if we make it past 2012 we should see some AMAZING toys coming our way, maybe BB will upgrade their hardware/software from the 1980's to the ' 90's.

This supposedly is their call centre and used to come up as "Big Brothers" on the call display.  Now it comes up as Brit. Columbia, guess more people actually pick up now?  Never have made a donation as our stuff goes to the SPCA store and getting pretty tired of them calling.

I donate to "Big Brothers too". They called, I picked up, no one was there. If the use manual staffing they should at least talk. It is a worthy cause, they should staff competent people!  How can I help if they don't communicate?

I got a call from them last night, 6:32pm 11 Oct 08.  I picked up and no answer.  It sounded like someone was on the line not the usual computerized telemarketer disconnect.  I hung up and no call back.

We give to Big Brothers so it must have been a mistake on their part.   Strange thing is I "reverse phone" Canada 411`d it.... and there is no listing.  You would think a charitable organization like that would have 1) listed as Big Bro on the call display and 2) listed on Canada 411.

I too donate to the Big Brothers. Who else comes to your house to pick up? Good service and we like to help. BUTThey need to fix their phone system. We dislike calls and no one there ... is it a political party, a free cruise, furnace service or carpet cleaning ..... all annoying just like the call from BB.I THINK We were being called to remind us, that they are going to do a pick up tomorrow.

Got a call from (604) 526-2447 and whoever was calling would not or could not talk. I do not care who it was that was calling but if you do not follow through your calls then do not call. If this call was from Big Brothers then do not call my number again as from now on do not wish to listen or talk to you.
