The person launched into a very lengthy survey about BC transit and eventually got around to asking several odd questions, such as postal code and household income, as well as first name. At that point, I hung up, but it was still inconvenient and downright rude.

Very rude man. Started asking me things (no introduction). I asked him how he got my paid for unlisted phone number and he said random dialing. I said Im on DoNotCall list and he ignored me and kept on asking me stuff. Very rude of him to keep on bothering me after me telling him this. I said I want to be removed from his list and he ignored me saying he is exempt from DoNotCall list. WTH...really...I pay for unlisted phone and tell this person not to phone me again and he can do whatever he wants? Not right!

Caller type: Survey
Didn't leave a message. When I called back it was a recorded voice stating it was "Ipsos-Reid" and they are doing a marketing survey (no sales). At the end of the recording it allows you to leave a message.

They called asking if any smokers use my phone between the ages of 18-29
I asked cigarette smokers you mean? The man replied with, "whatever you believe to be a smoker? So do any smokers use this phone? " I found it very odd he had a suspicious unsettling voice.

WTF? Some rude guy just called me from this number. I usually like giving these leeches enigmatic answers and s***w around but I didn't have time at that moment. TIP: I just tell them I'm under 19 and they usually piss off crossing off my number ;)

One call so far.....it seems I also got a call from this number 778-373-5011 on Dec 5, 2013 in North vancouver, It was a women calling at 845pm. Asking me about a survey and if I can answer 2 questions then immediatley went into asking me the questions before I could give consent. I ignored her questions and asked what company shes from? She was very vague in her responses and said just doing a research survey, then I asked how she got my number, she says it was a randon computer selection of numbers, I said it was inappropriate to call me so late, but she continued to press on saying it was only 2 questions! Her first question was if I was older than 18, I told her I will not answer and the conversation was over

Person called, said hi, you've recently gone through Work SafeBc, could you do a survey on our service, I said sure.
the entire conversation didn't sound professional, but also didn't ask me for any personal information. So I am confused as to what they wanted.
Work Safe BC also wouldn't call from a 778 area code number I don't think

Alrighty then. This is a telemarketer for IPSO Reid. They are hired to ask you questions for a survey and then suggest products for you to buy. You can block their calls but they have many alternate lines. The best method is to answer the next call and say I am not interested and take me off your call list. If they persist they are violation of the CRTC. Last night they phoned at 7:45, I was on another call. Today this morn at 9.14 am. I know where the calls are coming from in Vancouver downtown, not too hard to trace. DO NOT give out any info to them.

Shouldn't the phone server have a responsibility to cancel this type of account or at least restrict usage. I never answer them but they are annoying. The only other way is DON'T ANSWER THIS NUMBER, put it on your NO list. I have 20 numbers on my NO list, so when they call again I just let it ring in silence.
