Does this phone number look familar?

This phone number keeps calling me all the time and I think it's Rogers trying to get me to hook up a cell phone with them. I've answered either this number or one very similar to it before and was Rogers.

After that I never answered that number or similar ones. This number calls me every day but never leaves a message on my voice mail.

416-256-6481

Does that look like a Rogers sales number or something?

I guess you haven't tried dialling it?

**zerokarma** · 01-21-2003, 01:03 PM

No, I don't want to talk to them.

just answer the phone.

if it's rogers just blow into the receiver thus mimicking static and hang up.

at lease you'll know

I called, it something like Gemma Communications.."non solicitation phone number" Apparently you leave your number and it takes you off the list...

I dont know if I would trust doing that, it prob just confirms your number and will call you all the time !

i called them

i was bored... call them leave your name and number and they will remove you from there list.

I don't know if I trust them enough to do that, I don't want other strange people calling me as a result.

Damm spamming auto-dialers.

Reminds me of Homer Simpson and his auto-dialer. "Send $2 to Happy Dude" lol

gemma communications is a telemarketing company that has the rogers contract... rogers pays gemma to call peeps to sign up with rogers...

because they're a telemarketing company, by not answering they'll just put your number on a list of call backs to call again later

Can't they take a hint though? like after at least 40-50 calls over the period of 3 months or longer, you would think they would just give up after never getting an answer.

Is it possible it is a automatic dialer. I keep getting calls from Shaw Cable Systems and no one is even on the phone......
