Re: Optik TV Added After Suspicious Call; Legit?
Hi Brandon, I called this number:1-833-390-3721. I got a TELUS representative. My account clearly came up. I have advised said agent to escalate this to the manager and whatever team manages the outbound phone system used to contact customers. I have also been getting calls from this number, and they have not been leaving voicemails. Sometimes I get calls multiple times in one day. I also have call control on so I know its a human trying to reach me. The agent did not know about the number. The thing is, call center phone systems will sometimes have multiple caller ID numbers that DO NOT MATCH anything on the website. This is a very normal practice for call centers. The problem with this, is in a day and age where you can be scammed for just answering your phone and being hung up on, people don't answer numbers they don't know. Whomever is doing said outbound calls trying to sell services needs to learn to leave a voicemail, or your team who deals with the phone service should see if maybe having a call display name on outbound calls is an option. Hope this helps, From a fellow call center worker.245KViews3likes4Comments
