I received several calls for somebody else from this number.  When I called back, I found out that it was a collection agency called Global Credit & Collection.  I found there website ( http://www.globalcollection.net/Consumers.aspx ) and contacted their main number. They told me that they would remove my phone number from their files, and they did.

global credit about past cell phone unpaid bills. just block them off.. dont even pick up... they probably got you number from rogers, they are the same company.... **s-holes

used to have a Fido cell. moved to an area Fido has no local or even distant coverage. They sent me final bill, which was paid but now getting hounded to pay for cancellation of contract. Why doesn't Fido or Rogers have the balls to call themselves.

retard, calls me 4 times everyday!! i gonna call those retardback and give them a piece of my mind

I just made a complaint to the CRTC, hopefully action will be taken. This is what I sent:

This phone no. has been calling me for a few weeks now filling up my answering machine. Today they called 3 times this morning, and so on the 3rd call I decided to answer (12:01pm). It was a recorded message stating to press any key to speak to a live agent (something to do with collections). So I did. A woman answered the phone and confirmed my name. She asked for my postal code and date of birth. I stated I would give her my postal code, but not my date of birth. She said okay. When I gave her my postal code she said that is not what they have on file for me. Then she asked me if February 15th was my birthday and I said no I think you have the wrong person. I also told her if this was regarding collections I have no idea why they are calling me as I am always paying my bills. She said a lot of people don't realize they are in collection until they call them. Anyway, I hope that they will not be calling back anymore, but I'm not convinced. If this is some kind of scam, I want to report this so others don't give away their personal information. I did do a "Google" search of this phone no. to see if others were having the same issue, and there were quite a few people with complaints about the recorded message and then becoming long distance (I won't know until I get my phone bill). Another person stated it was some kind of scam. Anyway, I will leave it in your hands and hope if it is not something legit, that it will be investigated and appropriate action taken.

agree both numbers call me day after day and more than once annoying suckers
