any way to block certain phone numbers on the cell?

BOOSTFTW · 08-21-2008, 04:59 PM

I get about 10 telemarketing phone calls a day from 4 different phone numbers and it's annoying the hell out of me. Is there a way to block these annoying incoming calls?

Depends on the cell phone, most of the higher end Samsungs have a block feature. Otherwise, you can just assign those numbers a blank ringtone so at least the ringing won't bother u. Or, just tell them you're on the do not call list and they're actually not supposed to be contacting you..maybe that'll scare them off -- penalties for violations are pretty bad.

matters who you have/what phone you have. I had att and got them to give me the blocking for free fora month finally the assholes who bothered me stopped calling so i canceled.

Add your cell phone to the do not call registry. If they keep calling mark down all the info - people are suing and winning these cases easily.
