I got a call from (905) 552-2511 and the guy started telling me that I filled out a ballot on Apr. 7 and that I won a prize. asked me to take a pen and paper and write down the information of how to claim it. Since I NEVER fill out 'ballots' or anything where I can 'win' a prize I knew it was bullllllsh*tt. I said that I haven't filled out any ballots and that I'm not interested - the reply 'Well, it must be someone in your family who filled it out'. I further questioned (yeah, I spent about 20 minutes on the call - had time to burn and didn't just hang up) where he got my name and what else is written on the 'ballot'. The reply was that 'you are two people between the ages of 27 and 65 and the total income is more then $60000' (so now you know what 'criteria' they are looking for) That's funny - I'm single; so who is that other person on the ballot that wants to share in MY prize? I kept repeating that I'm not interested in the prize and every time he wanted to know why I'm not interested. I suggested to him that since I'm not interested that he can give this prize to someone else - he insisted that it is my prize. So after 20 minutes of this he finished the conversation with 'F___ off' which I expected he would. I started laughing and hope that he didn't hang up to soon and heard it.

Premium Buyers Club (or Ontario International), 6175 Hwy 7 #6, Woodbridge, ON (not a "Timeshare", its a "Lifestyle Club") - we went to their "reception" after obtaining the prize code for filling out a ballet (yeah right!). Made the appointment, had no intention of buying anything. Thought "what the heck, the least we will get is a 3 day/2 night getaway". Was specifically told it would take no longer than 60-90 minutes, we were there for over 2 HOURS before finally drawing for the prize, which was the 3 day/2 night getaway at 21 different north american locations. After getting the detailed prize information, which is through Odenza Marketing, you need to pay a refundable (??) deposit of $100 US, doesn't seem to be any guarantees of where/when you will be able to travel (except the first night is Sunday - Wednesday). Searching Odenza Marketing through google leads me to many red flags. All seems kind of hokey to me! The certificate will be shredded. Was a complete waste of my time. It appears that the Premium Buyers Club may be able to save you money if you regularly travel 2-3 times a year on exotic vacations. Cost $8999 + fees, taxes, was over $11000 total for a 10 year term. Most of their other associations with companies can be obtained elsewhere through coupons, searching for deals on-line or negotiations without paying their club fee (reduced furniture, restaurants, home renovations, hotels - anyone heard of priceline.com?) DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME. This is a scam, lots of high pressure sales tactics. I won't be reeled in again! Note: While getting antsy after the intial 90 minutes, I stood at the table because I simply could not sit on the chair any longer. The agent told me we weren't allowed to stand in that room! ha ha, what a crock - by that time, I just needed to get out of there!

I got a call from PBC Discounts stating that I won 1 of a possible 5 prizes but I had to go to 6195 Highway 7, Unit 6 in Woodbridge, Ontario on a Saturday pick it up. They said I had put my name in a ballot (but I couldn't understand where they said I filled out the ballot). I said I wasn't available on Saturday. They called Monday wanting me to come on Tuesday. I said I wasn't available then, either. They called on Tuesday and said I could come Wednesday and I said I was available and took my information. They were more upset that I wasn't married or engaged to be married or even dating. They then connected me to the manager and she asked if I knew what I had to do to get one of the guaranteed prizes. I said no, and she said I had to sit through a 90-minute presentation. I immediately said I'm not sitting through a 90-minute presentation for some real estate scam. She said it had nothing to do with real estate. I said I wasn't coming and to delete me from the guest list.

After being awake until 5:00 am with a sick child, my phone rang at 8:30 am this morning. I was greeted by a guy with an extremely thick East Indian accent. I couldn't understand his name but he said he was a 'verification manager' with Ontario International. I said, "Thank you, but I'm not interested." He quickly responded that he was not selling anything and that I had completed a prize ballot at a shopping mall during Christmas and he was calling to offer/verify my prize. I said that I had 'absolutely not completed any ballot' (my exact words) and...before I could respond any further, he said...(and these are his exact words - edited in order to post)..."F___ off, son of a b____!" AND...hung up on me!This is not the first call I've received from this company and I sick of it! I will be reporting this call and the use of profanity to the police and the BBB.

Just got the same phone call, and after his schpeel, he gets really pissed off when you say you never filled anything out, and when I asked what I have to do to get my ``prize``, he said `did I say you have to sit through a boring presentation``. His guy was a piece of work.
