how do I use the "Caller ID" function to block calls

R.L. - CL83201 does not have a specific feature to block a call. Contact your service provider to inquire about call blocking options they may offer.

This model does not have a built-in "Caller ID" function to block calls. I utilized my telephone company's call blocking feature (up to 12 different telephone numbers) to 'defer' undesired calls, i.e., a recording stating that the number being accessed is not available to receive incoming calls.

YES you can just enter the area code 800 or 877 to be blocked. You can also enter the entire number you want blocked like 800-555-1212. You can enter wildcard strings like 800-555-#### to block specifically all calls fom the 555 exchange.

You just scroll to the number you want to block and confirm. There are a few clicks but no entries.

I've had calls that say private caller. If it only calls me once then I don't do anything about it. But if it calls again I just walk over to the little box and hit the block call button twice and the problem goes away.

Yes you can block calls and up to 250 phone numbers. You can have it block calls that no phone number is attached to like "Private Caller" I find this a life saver after having around 100 blocked numbers so far but there are always more coming in but I've really cut the nuisance calls dramatically. Great feature to have and blocking calls are very easy to do.

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.

I haven't ever tried to do this, but I can find nothing in the instructions that addresses it. My guess would be that you could not block other handsets from coming onto the line.

You have to call your phone company and they will give you the number s to block callers

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.

to my knowledge, block caller does not work. It has the feature, but all experiences have shown it to be useless.

Yes. You can block individual numbers or entire area codes. You can even block all calls, then grant access on a number-by-number basis. I love it.
1845004
Yes, you can block a specific number. You can even block a specific area code.

As long as you have caller ID it will work. It receives the call and the display will show caller ID info. Then if you choose to block it, just touch 1 button, and they will be blocked forever, or until you unblock them.

It does not have a call block function that I know of but there is a hold button on the handset.
