Two guys came today from Toronto Breeze, I did not do my homework and check out the company before I agreed to an appointment. I was reading these reviews when the guy came up and asked me when I had my furnace last serviced. I had a new high-efficiency unit and new AC installed four years ago, with no issues. When I replied that they were new, he asked me if I was told to get my ducts cleaned before they wer replaced, and that I already had leaking from the AC. I didn't let him finish his explanation and said I would call the heating/cooling company if there was a problem, not wanting to be scammed. They were in and out in 35 mins. So if you like an unmarked truck, workers that don't say 'hi' when they enter the house and go downstairs, and cash payments with no receipts, this is your company. Next time I will call a local company.

So these a***oles have been calling me an average of 10 times a week since the summer.  I've tried all the usual tactics mostly just swearing the hell out of them, but that's just been making me angry.  So courtesy of my brother, I tried this new tactic.  Treat it as a phone sex call.  I started out by asking what he's wearing.  This confused him so I repeated it again and again, letting him know that I really need a visual to get things going.  I could hear him talking to the other people around him saying "He wants to know what I'm wearing" so I knew I had him going.  Finally he told me that he's wearing blue pant, in an orgasmic state, I replied "oh blue panties, that's so hot... what else?"  Confused, he goes on, a black shirt, really playing it up, I go on "Oh yeah I love it, what about your bra, is it silk or lace?"  With that he hung up.I really enjoyed this one because I had the guy so confused and flustered and wasted 3 minutes of his time.  He was so upset I almost felt sorry for him, but I lost any sympathy and compassion for these a***oles about 100 phone calls ago.If you feel like you can use this tactic, please start out with "what are you wearing".  Get them talking about a common tactic that is being used to mess with them and maybe they'll clue in to get our group of the list.AQ Home ServicesAbsolute Quality Home Services43 Mount Pleasant AvenueWhitby, OntarioL1N 0E(647) 400-3437(519) 489-0466shuraqi @ hotmail.com

Every time I get a call from these people, they say they're calling for (from) Air (Ayr?) Duct Cleaning (the caller said his name was Sam at least once, but I don't think he's the only person who has called me), and they have told me that they're located in Toronto, but it's difficult to say for sure.  They won't tell me the name of the telemarketing company they work for (in any clear, intelligible way), and despite having warned them several times that my number is on the NDNCL list, and asking them to remove me from their internal list, they still keep calling at least once a week.

I will agree with Mike that they seem polite enough, until I start telling them about my DNCL status.  At that point, they stammer a bit, and usually just hang up.

I don't really doubt that they're a legit (albeit irritating) business, but in case you're interested, here's what the Canada Mortgage and Housing Company has to say about duct cleaning:

There a scam.. They call me and my business 5 times a day ....they threaten to cut my head off ....They say that I'm a woman and I'm beneath there feet... I've called the cops they won't do anything about it.... They continue to call me 5 to 6 times a day for last year... I've given up no one will help me they just won't stop

I have had so many calls I finally got the truck to come out. I was very polite to the driver and told him I was sorry there was no work for him as my house doesn't have ducts. However I did get a card and I have checked to verify the number and names. The owner is Ali Tariq of Toronto Breeze Duct Cleaning.  at 113  Porchester Dr. Scarborough ON M1J 2R4  Phone (416) 894-5421The address is a private home in a subdivision.They called back to rebook the appointment.
