888-688-0709

these idiots dont say anything when I answer

An automated phone survey (i.e. a "robocall") concerning the upcoming Canadian Federal Election (October 2008).

Called on a Sunday? how odd for telemarkers to call on Sundays...didn't answer, figured a scam of some sort.

When they called my number, their call machine was asking my answering machine questions. I wouldn't want to hire them to do a survey for my company!

Didn't answer, as the Called ID was enough to tell me not to bother

Called my cell phone. I am not pleased

J'ai reçu un appel provenant de ce numéro et sur l'afficheur cela indiquait Ekos Research. C'est en enregistrement qui demande d'appuyer sur le 1 ou si on reste en ligne de répondre à des questions avec la chance de gagner 500.00$.  J'ai raccroché.  Je ne comprends pas pourquoi mon numéro est encore sur des listes de télémarketing puisque je me suis inscrite sur la liste d'exclusions depuis plusieurs mois déjà !!

Got a call from this number on July 24th at 5:54 PM

I just called to see who it is.

Ekos Research Associates.

They called me on Remembrance Day (Veterans Day for USA) at 8:18pm.  Would have thought they'd have the day off!  I didn't answer.

Ils m'ont appelé sur mon cellulaire...j'étais FURAX!
Les cellulaires, ça coûte déjà assez cher comme ça! Je trouve ça dégueulasse.
