I hung up when I heard "Research Center". They called again but I didn't answer.
Got this on the caller ID too. The part that bugs me the most is paying to have an unlisted phone number, contacting the Do Not Call list and these jerks still call, it's "random computer numbers". ya right!
I just recieved this call, so I did some research and it turns out that it is a pocatello, Idaho company using a michigan phone number, I have copied and pasted what tWhy did we contact you?
People want to know what you are thinking.
Each climber has unique experiences and there is value in learning from one another. Survey research is key to shaping everyday society because it allows people like you to share your thoughts on everything from social to political issues. Mountain West Research Center is a data collection company that is contracted to administer surveys on behalf of third party research companies. We do not sell products, solicit donations, or intentionally frustrate potential survey participants.
We understand that sometimes our professional interviewers attempt to contact you at a time when you are unable to complete a survey. Because your opinions are valuable we often have the resources in place to allow you to share your views via surveys conducted on the internet or by having our team telephone you at a later time. If you are not able to complete a survey when contacted please consult your calendar and schedule a more appropriate time for the interviewer to phone you back. We respect your time and value your opinion and will make every effort to accommodate your busy schedule.
If for some reason you wish not to participate in a survey simply state your desires and you will not be contacted concerning that research issue again. Since your opinions and experiences are of such a high value we will respect your requests. We keep an internal list of households that do not wish to be contacted concerning any research matter regardless of the topic. If you wish to have your name added to this list simply email your household’s telephone number to contact@mwrcenter.com. This internal list is not affiliated with the federal Do Not Call list. Since we are not telemarketing (selling products via the telephone) we do not fall under the governance of the Do Not Call list.
We can not stress the importance associated with sharing your opinions. As a respected national research data collection company we assure you that your personal information will be held in the utmost regard and will only be used for ethical research purposes. Mountain West Research Center is associated and in good standings with the major organizations which govern the market research industry and most of all we are now associated with you. Our commitment to you is to honor your trust and respect your opinions.
this number appears on my caller id. since I didn't know, I didn't answer. Then I googled it and read the other comments...Good to know about these scams.
These people call all the time. They have nothing better to do then bug families on weeknights when the children are being put to sleep for the night or the older ones are concentrating on homework.
started getting daily calls from this number this week, I answered - but just dead air, I googled and found this, so from now on won't answer them. thanks
I accidentally answered this call. The caller id showed "Research Center." They wanted my opinion on politics in New Hampshire. I told them, "No thanks" and hung up.
I received a call from 231-224-2033, the Research Center, and I agreed to the survey... It seemed like it was going to be a broad political survey however after several questions it locked into New Jersey's school system.
I'm not sure I understand what you meant when you said that it locked into New Jersey's school system. Were the questions about the school system or were you connected to the system?
I never answer calls I don't know, especially if they don't leave messages. Must not be too important and they do call at all hours the latest was at about 8:00pm
Just got two calls from them and its 8:45pm... I did not answer and they called back 10 minutes later. Anyone know anymore info about them??? cause they upset me & I have many hours of free time.
Got two calls from them today, one at 4:30pm while I was out and again at 8:55pm. Both times I was left a message from a woman with an Indian accent asking repeatedly to speak with "the male member of the household". Evidently she didn't know that she was talking to a machine-she said her name was "Heidi Perry." Thanks for this great site on scams!
