I followed-up to the CRTC on my complaint with this, just out of my own curiosity.
Thank you for responding. The issue is resolved for now, my only concern is how easy it was to “slam” my line in the first place.
How is it that anyone considers the current system to be in any way secure, where some random phone company can claim that I requested their service without any authentication from me whatsoever? Is that not an obvious flaw in the system that should be addressed at some point?
If the CRTC is not regulating the rates, terms of service or business practices of long-distance service providers, then who is?
Thank you.
