OT: Bell Mobility spam (not SMS) from 416-780-8411 & 8483 & 8485 anyone?

[Alex Beamish]

Hi folks,

This is a little off-topic, but it's driving my wife insane. She's been
getting a number of spam phone calls from the numbers in the subject line --
they're recordings for some kind of stupid offer. Once a month I could live
with, but she got three while we were at a baseball game on Monday (go
Jays!).

I've filled in a form at bell.ca, but that's only because I don't have 45
minutes to spend on hold at Bell Mobility, and I'm clinging to the hope that
this can actually be resolved over E-Mail. Has anyone on this list
experienced the same problem with the same frequency? Did you ever hear back
from your cell phone provider? Is the only alternative to start blocking
numbers?

My wife is staying with her Mother in Burlington while they tend for her
Father, who is very ill in hospital. She's away from her boys, she's bunking
in with her Mother, and some automated system keeps calling her damned cell
phone. It's unnecessary stress, and really, really frustrating. Thanks, all.
