Leave a CommentIt's EKOS Research, a notable polling firm that regularly conducts research surveys in Ca***a. Just **** up if you don't want to parti****te, but they may try a***n if you simply ignore their call and don't answer the phone. Beyond that, it's spam but not a scam.
My order for $399 has been processed
Just called, said nothing and **** up
said nothing
They call and never say anything or leave a message.
From Ca***a
i don’t trust any numbers anymore
It’s EKOS research. I don’t do surveys or polls without remuneration. I tell anyone calling for a ‘short survey’ that I charge $500 per survey. Usually they say “we don’t pay for surveys”. To which I say ‘but you’ll monetize the information I provide, which I do not provide for free. My price is $500.’ It’s gotten me off a lot of lists.
so they called me and I said*****o and stuff and they didn’t say anything there was just super heavy breathing on the other end of the call. there was a name but also the number and the name was literally EKOS research.
Has called me 3 times within the past 3 days, quite annoyed by it ! I live in Ca***a !

EXEMPT from do not call list. Political blurbs and surveys. If you want a say, answer. If not, BLOCK this number on your phones.
Although EKOS research are technically exempt from the DNCL, they call often and just **** up when you answer. They need to be warned , stopped and have their exemption removed.
Losers!
I don't do research survey's over the phone - stop calling
***ody at other end - dead ****e

Ils m'ont appelé sur mon cellulaire...j'étais FURAX!Les cellulaires, ça coûte déjà****ez cher comme ça! Je trouve ça dégueulasse.
They called me on Remem***nce Day (Veterans Day for USA) at 8:18pm. Would have thought they'd have the day off! I didn't answer.
I am on the do not call list. WHY ARE THESE PEOPLE CALLING ME.
I received a call from 1-888-688-0709 tonight 09/15/2009 at 18:58 PM this is not the first time they've called. Since last year November 2008 I put my name on Ca***a's donotcall list , so these telemarketers(EKOS Research) should not be bothering me!
This number called me on my Cell Phone, but they ***g up after 6 seconds. First time I've seen that number.
Got a call from this number on July 24th at 5:54 PMI just called to see who it is.Ekos Research****ociates.
J'ai reçu un appel provenant de ce numéro et sur l'afficheur cela indiquait Ekos Research. C'est en enregistrement qui demande d'appuyer sur le 1 ou si on reste en ligne de répondre à des questions avec la chance de gagner 500.00$. J'ai raccroché. Je ne comprends pas pourquoi mon numéro est encore sur des listes de télémarketing puisque je me suis inscrite sur la liste d'exclusions depuis plusieurs mois déjà !!
Called my cell phone. I am not pleased
Didn't answer, as the Called ID was enough to tell me not to bother
This was found on the EKOS Marketign website.....apparently you have to tell them you don't want to be called as they are exempt from the do not call list....what a joke "Anyone who wants to opt out of receiving survey research calls from our company may do so by contacting us directly at [email protected]. We will also respect opt-out requests from a third party, on behalf of individuals, if we are satisfied that the third party has the authority to act on their behalf."
Phones every night at the same time, doesn't sound like anyone is there as as you are about to **** up they s**** speaking,trying to get you to fill out a survey
I don't want to be called...never gave my number to anyone ever, so they must have bought it from Rogers.
When they called my number, their call ma****e was asking my answering ma****e questions. I wouldn't want to hire them to do a survey for my company!
i did not answer the call...
called feb 27/09,left a garbled message on answering system. I am on no call list.
Apparently to other sites this is a research company--did election calls last election. Do not know why it is calling now.
****up
Called on a Sunday? how odd for telemarkers to call on Sundays...didn't answer, figured a scam of some sort.
An automated phone survey (i.e. a "robocall") concerning the upcoming Ca***ian Federal Election (October 2008).
