Re: [on-asterisk] Bell Canada has paid a $1.3 million penalty for violating the National Do Not Call List Rules
I think this is just a case of farming out this part of their business to third party partners. If you don't control these companies they can cut corners (in order to save costs). I hope that Bell have cancelled this third parties contract. Henry On Tue, Dec 21, 2010 at 2:24 PM, Simon P.

RE: [on-asterisk] Bell Canada has paid a $1.3 million penalty for violating the National Do Not Call List Rules
Yes, we got this from our legal counsel too. The reality is that $1.3 million may be a drop in the bucket compared to the revenue that they brought in from the activities for which they have been fined. Hard to say.
