Cussed out by telemarketer

display said "Long Distance" no number.....recorded msg said to press 1 if I want to lower my interest rates on my credit card. I pressed 1....response was "thankyou for contacting your MTS Calling Centre....(huh?) a service rep will be available shortly...individual came on the line. He said "I presume your Mr. Myname." I said yes and since you have both my name and my tel-number: would you please be so kind as to remove me from your calling list. His response was " Shutup, you F(^$)& B^)&)*%. Kinda caught me off guard. lol. Now....MTS says they have no way of tracing the call. Should someone else get a similar call...try and get as much information from from the caller as possible...perhaps then the caller could be identified. I can handle x-amout of barnyard language but I'd be wanting to try n get at this character thru the phone line somehow if it had been my wife he had spoken to like that. Btw....I know enough that MTS isn't in the business of lowering anyones credit card interest. I don't know if the telemarketing firm uses other identifiers....didn't this time.
Be well!
