Network Communications International Corporation Used phone-number similiar to Canada Direct to profit from mis-dialed calls Longview Texas
After inquring about a very high charge on my phone bill.
If one is in North American and dials
1-800-555-1111 one get's the Canada Direct number, and can use a Bell Canada calling card
If one accidentally dials:
1-800-555-5111 one gets almost exacly the same "Welcome to Canada" message - can still use a Bell Canada calling card and when one receives one's phone bill, discovers that one is billed at about $2.65 a minute.

We carry tollfree numbers for multiple carriers and often receive erroneous calls. The tollfree number you are discussing is not owned by NCIC although we may provide billing for the collect calls.
In the future, for a lower rate, please try 1-800-Call4Less.
Thank you.
