I just received a marketing call from Trisha at ConyBex (callerID +27 (31) 0011083), trying to sell me (OK, I had been selected to receive a free voucher - yea right) their Holiday Voucher product.

What seems strange is that when I asked how she got my number, She told me it was a "legal list of RICA numbers". That seems very strange to me, that the RICA list is in the hands of telemarketers....

Wish there was somewhere to actually report these guys...

Also got a call from a 031 001 xxxx number a few times yesterday. Uber frustrating because as soon as I say 'hello' their broken calling system ends the call.

Not only them - MTN uses the RICA lists for their telemarketing too

As a rica agent I cannot understand statements like these. Why would MTN use the so-called RICA list... when they can just use the MTN list?

Prepaid? No contract with mtn in that case, but rica has all your details.

Uhm... Maybe because the telemarketing woman from MTN who phoned me told me she got my details from RICA list and maybe because I am not even with MTN... Is it clearer for you now?
