stop these unwanted calls. Need the government to do something about these people. Check all of the numerous complaints on other sites!!

Typical telescum ignoring the do not call list.
Complaints to the CRTC do little good.  
1.  It's a false number which stops any procedures dead.
2.  It's a bunch of US telescum which stops any procedures dead.  I understand that a bunch of Quebec telescum are circumventing the US laws also.
3.  The legislation is pretty toothless.  All unsolicited calls were supposed to be stopped but then the politicians started throwing in exemptions.
- Surveys - I've gotten several calls that are announced as surveys but are actually telemarketing. "This is a survey about duct cleaning. Did you know that it is recommended to have your ducts cleaned every two years?" (Word structure as spoken - can't do an East Indian accent in type.)
-  Newspaper solicitation - c'mon solicitation is solicitation - the Toronto Star keeps calling even though I've asked repeatedly to be on their do not call list.  The last call made me lose my temper a little so my response was "The Star - that left wing liberal rag?  I don't read garbage."
-  Political - still solicitation - I tell them I'd only contribute to a party that made effective anti-telemarketing legislation or at least honestly endorsed it and clearly that hasn't happened yet.

But more importantly and realistically we're talking about a government bureaucracy here.
Inaction is the word of the day.  
An average of 13,000 plus complaints per month. (http://www.crtc.gc.ca/eng/dncl/status-etape.htm)
15 fines issued. (http://www.crtc.gc.ca/eng/8045/da2012.htm)
You can work out the ratio if you want to - makes me a little sick to see my tax dollars being wasted so badly.

Personally I think that once a threshold of call complaints is reached - maybe 100 in a month.  The offenders phones should all be disconnected with major penalties for circumvention.  Napoleonic code should then be applied.  Draconian?  Yes, but effective and you would not need to do many before they got the message.  

Anyway, I'm done venting for now.  Time to put out the garbage.

Credit Remedial... They left a message.

Same phone spam and BS voicemail.  

With every spam, I call Telus (my provider) to register a complaint.  They compile complaint lists and forward them to the CRTC. My complaint is just a speck of dust, but if everybody registers their respective specks, maybe, eventually, at some point in time, it'll make the CRTC sneeze.

Also, since they are using a Canadian-based number to relay international spam, it's important to contact the Canadian 'Do Not Call List" to register a complaint.  They are required to investigate each complaint, and they have some teeth to clamp down on these Canadian proxy numbers.

I want to be removed from their list....

A prerecorded message telling you that they can solve 80% of your credit card debt - then tells you to push a button on your keypad.   Obviously a credit card scam .
