For those of you with a smart phone, it's easy to block unwanted callers from calling you back. Use the APP "CallFilter". If you get an unwanted call, hang up, open the app, and tap "Add the last incoming number". You'll never get a call from that number again. Some companies will have multiple lines and will call back on another number later on, but just block those repeat calls and sooner or later they stop. I used to get 4-5 unwanted calls a week. Now it's more like 1-2 a month.
Yep, we dumped the land line years ago and went with only cell phones. I have a different app, but the same idea. Mine automatically blocks numbers from a known community list of spammers and then I can add numbers, whole area codes, non-numeric calls, etc. I rarely even receive any unwanted calls now. Periodically, I'll look at the call log just to see how many have been blocked. There are always a few that tried again and again got blocked. I have it set to where I never even get any type of notice I had a blocked call.
