Why is 1-888-508-1088 calling me?

1-888-508-1088 is Bell Canada's own Accounts receivable line. When Bell Canada calls you itself, your account is usually still with Bell Canada and hasn't been passed to a collection agency.

They may be calling because:

  • A payment on your account is late or missed
  • They need to talk to you about your account
  • They're trying to reach someone else and have the wrong number

Dealing with Bell Canada now, before the account is sent to a collection agency, can make it easier to agree a payment plan.
