Quit calling Idiot!
Called today (Feb 2016). I hung up on them.
Hi this is Genevieve calling from Telus about your recent phone bill call me at 3103427 to discuss. Some one not knowing this is a scam might get hooked into actually calling back worried something is wrong with their bill. This dummy didn't bother to give an area code or did she count on call display and the Internet. Back off Telus this is exactly why I deal with Shaw and Rogers.
Had the same thing as others. I answered the call, said hello, no one was there. Hung up and tried calling the number and got the same results as everyone else... I'm not that fussed as usually I'm not home when they call. Next time I will wait the seven seconds for a response, and leave them on the line while I go do something else.
Repeated calls to bth my phone, and my spouses phone. She answered once, and the guy tried to sell her a new plan. She declined, he changed her plan anyways. We spent 2 hours on the phone trying to UNDO the mess he made. Really not a fan of Telus at all.
Since they never leave messages anyways, I just save them as a contact, then set my smartphone to decline and block the caller automatically. Never get annoyed by them again after doing that.
