Constant Telephone Harassment

Every single day, sometimes more than once a day someone calls me from Telus or Telus mobility to tell me about new offers or such. It is horrible harassment, I tell every telemarketer who phones me to NEVER call me again and yet right quick they call me again. 

I haven't been a Telus customer since I switched my internet two years ago. 

I have registered my number on CANADAS DO NOT CALL LIST but it does not make any difference. How can I get this harassment to stop? 

  • Are you actually sure it's Telus calling and not one of the many scammers that pretend to be Telus? The ones that keep calling that frequently tend to be overseas scammers. Telus doesn't usually cold call people to offer things.

  • Perhaps. Third time this morning. Says they are from Telus mobility. 

    This time I asked for his supervisor... she continued to try to tell me that as a good customer, I was entitled to...

    But I am not a customer.

    Three different phone numbers. If overseas scammers can fake local numbers, is there no stopping them?

      Thanks, FuzzyLogic, but that is only available on the Telus App. I am not a Telus customer anymore (and will never again).  Fascinating that Call control is a feature on Telus phones but the ONLY people I need to use it against is Telus itself.
