caller number block Can you block phone numbers
219807
PS, Since I own the: Panasonic KX-TG4031B DECT 6.0 PLUS , maybe it would allow me it's 30 and this different model possibly would allow another 30? I could disable the answer machine feature on my current one and toss it into a back room. Maybe it would work since they are entirely different ?

Yes. When a call is received, the unit rings for a short time while the caller is beingidentified. If the phone number matches an entry in the call block list, the unit sends out a busy tone to the caller, and then disconnects the call.You can store up to 30 phone numbers in the call block list by using the caller list orby entering the numbers directly.You can also block unlimited calls with no number such as Out of Area and Private Number.

Do you have to pay your phone company to activate this call block feature or is this something that it totally free that is built into the phone? Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Thanks and I have tried that as well as reporting them ALL but they keep calling. Changed number 3 times but I guess in this economy there is just a ton of folks in trouble? And last night I had the same idiots call 6 times anyway for someone we never heard of with a Hispanic name but they shows UNAVAILABLE, out of area. My phone would only allow me to erase. NO way to "save call" to add to my caller block. The real kicker is I pay COX Cable phone service e lot extra to NOT allow "anonymous" calls....so much for that working. I can't understand why my Panny phone allows me to block all EXCEPT the calls with "no number"? Thanks and I have tried that as well as reporting them ALL but they keep calling.

As it turns out, this set allows me to block 30 callers. But I also get to block ANOTHER 30 on my original I had prior that was not part of this set....So if I get more than 60 callers that require blocking? No problem, in THAT case I will simply go without a telephone! :-)

old codger...i think a lot of us, at any age, still refuse to read the manual until we need it! thank you for asking the question. even before buying this phone system and not reading the manual, i still wanted to know the answer! thanks again!

PPS.....everyone please IGNORE my ignorance. Page 28 on my owners manual showed me the "switch" I needed to turn on this feature to automatically reject ANY & ALL out of area or no number calls. At my age I still refuse to read a manual...had it coming I suppose :-))

Unfortunately, you will not be able to block 30 calls from each phone. However, you will be able to block ALL calls that have no number, Private number, or say Out of Area if that's any consolation. You may also want to consider answering some of these calls and telling them to put you on their no call list. Under law, they are obliged to do so.

Not one button; but, the number does not need to be entered manually. As soon as I identify the number as one I want to block, I reject the call. It then appears as the first number in my list of missed calls. I select "menu" scroll to "Call Block" and select it, then confirm "Yes". When I've been away from the phone I routinely check for messages and missed calls. From the listed of missed calls, I select the numbers I want to block, select "menu", scroll to "call block", and confirm "yes".

Yes, you can block up to 30 numbers, when a blocked number calls the phone rings once and disconnects, caller ID shows "Blocked Call"

No. You can use a black list to block specific numbers or area codes (it does allow wild characters ). You can also block calls without a number specified like "Private Caller" or "Out of Area". Alternatively you can use a whitelist where all calls not in the whitelist will be blocked. However, check out the robocall blocking service at www.nomorobo.com. This sounds like a pretty good service and it is free. I just signed up for it. However, it only works for phone companies that provide a simulring option. Apparently this rules out all cell phone providers even when the provider has a landline side and has that option there.

It blocks every number unless the number is placed in your "A" or "B" list. It still allows the caller to leave a voice mail message.

Yes, for up to 250 numbers. This is the reason we bought these phones, the call blocking is very important to us.

Yes, you can block many specific numbers in addition to entire area codes. The device is amazing. Here is a link to the User Manual: http://www.digitone.com/dcb10%202012%20manual.pdf.

Yes, but I think that phone number has to call you once so that you can store it as a blocked number. After that it will ring once and get disconnected. I don't know if you can add a number to your address book and then block it. Blocked numbers are limited to a total of 20 numbers, and 20 applies to all phones on the system. (It's not 20 per phone.)

No call block, that has to be done within your service and not the phone. I don't know how many numbers it holds, for some reason I can't find the manual right now, but I'm sure there is a manual available on line, sorry.

There are ways around the blocker, as an example someone could use Skype to get an unlimited amount of numbers to call you from in different area codes. However the blocker will also let you create a white list of accepted callers and block all other phone calls. I ended up having to go that route to keep someone from harassing my family.

I can't say it any better than the previous responders, they are right on. If you want to actually block a specific number, that is probably a function of the capability/capacity of your telephone provider. I truly have not had to enter numbers to block since I bought the TeleBouncer.

yes. you can just put in the first few numbers and it will block. You can also set it so that the phone doesn't ring when they call. I love my call blocker!!

Yes. When a call is received, the unit rings for a short time while the caller is being identified. If the phone number matches an entry in the call block list, the unit sends out a busy tone to the caller, and then disconnects the call. You can store up to 30 phone numbers in the call block list by using the caller list or by entering the numbers directly. You can also block unlimited calls with no number such as Out of Area and Private Number.

This varies, as your phone service itself, if you have the call blocking option selected (usually a small extra charge) will allow 30 in my case, using the *60 option. If the phone base allows additional blocking then in theory, you could block up to 60 numbers. I will soon get to find out due to the high number of telemarketer calls.

From my experience, I don't think so. Although, you can call block any number you want. If a blocked call comes in it rings once then stops. It will appear on the caller id as call blocked. I love this feature and have used many times. You only have to block the call once in the directory.
