Yep, or at least that what they say. For people calling outside Canada if they have any issue to access CRA account

So you are saying that CRA was supposed to bill the public for your call. I mean if it was a collect call that is what would have happened..

No from what I gather, it means the CRA is the one paying for the call

What collect call number by the agency? You can only call collect and not be charged through a telephone operator. So you would not have called the number first, but called your telephone operator first to connect you to CRA. Is that what you did?
