(800) 395-8813

Just got a call for this one. Quick check indicates that it's from a company called "Gemma Communications". A telemarketing company. It did offer me the option to remove my number from their system. We shall have to see if it's true or not.

(949) 540-0781

Geo Holidays... Wasn't home for this one either, but from what I hear, these guys are scam artists...and quite rude about it too!

(613) 667-9996

I wasn't home to receive this, but it looks like Stephen Harper (or the "Conservative Party of Canada") wants to more of my money. After some research, this is who it turns out to be. Apparently they have started telemarketing again.

Hopefully I'll catch them on the next run to ask them to stop calling.

10-10-103

Got another automated call from them... (514) 693-6415 is what was on the call list...

Just incase you can't find my entry on this company, 10-10-103 is a "no-change" long distance provider.

They do give a phone number (although you have to know to get a pen beforehand, otherwise, it goes by too fast) and a web site. On the web site, you can find find their contact number (currently: 1-866-650-0103). Eventually you can find an "attendant" and ask her to remove your number (at least that's what I did).

Whether this will work or not is a different story...we shall see if this lasts or not.

(416) 657-2693 (Again)

"Best Priced Movers" just called again. No caller ID (again)...left a phone number (again)... Going to call Bell and ask them how to deal with these people. Will have to do it Monday morning.

Just so everyone knows, they violate several issues from the "Bill of Rights". They're soliciting with an automated device, they don't give an address anywhere in their message OR on the line, and no-one real will answer the phone (as far as I know, that doesn't violate anything, but since they can't give me a confirmation number, you could say it does...).

(888) 629-2037

Just got this one...as is common lately, just dead air on the other end. I don't know why the phone companies allow these.

(416) 657-2693

Just got an automated call from them (no call display...gee, although from the research I've done, I'm not surprised)... Best Price Movers ... movers who aren't exactly held up in the best of lights....and when you call them back, you get voicemail (although granted, it is a Sunday).... I'm tempted to see what Bell says about them.

(416) 229-9902

Got this one at 4:37pm today (Private number on Caller ID) ... the only reason I could get the number is because of the automated message they had...I plan on calling them on Monday to have my number removed.

On the bright side, it looks like it's a legitimate business...Safetech Alarm Systems

Will have to see how they react to DNC requests...

(416) 638-8301

Got this one at 9:18pm today. The number registers as belonging to "GTA Windows". I've asked them to remove my number from the list, but it remains to be seen if they actually comply or not.
