Z....you're absolutely right. It works well, if you're getting the call from the same number. I have that situation on a few of the callers and they are now blocked. For those with rolling numbers, I just ignore the call and silence the phone to stop the ringing.

TIP: You can normally go to the internet and type the phone number into Google to find out who is calling you and that might give you a hint. I have DirecTV and get lots of calls from them, but they are now blocked. I was also getting a call from Oregon to sell me insurance; also now blocked.
