Jees.. it's illegal to spam a cell phone. Have you reported this? - and I don't mean the DNCL.
Is there a problem just looking at who's calling and not answering? That should discourage junk calls over time.
Sadly that may not always be the case but.
SMART PHONES (Mine is an android) seem to have fewer issues here plus I have an APP on my smart phone that used a different (nastier) type of blocking.
If I block it on the phone, then it goes to voice mail or if they hang up they do not get charged with a call and it does not apear on my records.
The Caller ID app i have picks up the call, then hangs it up, so it does NOT go to voice mail, and they get charged for a connected call and it appears on my bill (zero minutes, though in truth I have unlimited) and thus I have a legal record of it.
I have a company that spent most of last summer spamming me, I finally tracked them down and asked for payment under Title 47 (Section 227 USC) and they refused citing a Michigan law that lets them cold call me to set up a face to face.. When I get back to MI Im going to take it up with the courts because they also violated several other lines of that section, but .. Well, Will report on progress when there is some to report on. I have high hopes. THey owe me a new engine at least. (What they owe = more than engine replacement)
