Is there a setting for the phone not to ring even once if call is from a number in Caller Block list? Some models can be set for that. Hope 4734 can.

Not that I'm aware of', now you can turn down 2 of your phones if you have 3 phones. Sorry I can't be of more help

In my experience, having a single device for all phone extensions caused the phones to ring once, then the call was disconnected. Upon installing a device on each phone jack, none of them ring if it's a blocked number.

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!!

Telebounce doesn't block telephone numbers. You can set the machine not to ring your phone unless the calling party presses 1,2 or 3. Another option is your phone will ring once with the caller's id displayed, but the calling party still has to press a number. The teleboucer has reduced our calls from 40 to 50 a day to 4 maybe 5 calls. If you are using a voip line this is a necessity!

just put in the whole number with the star after. Or, after the call terminates hit the block button twice quickly. I love my call blocker.

I have a Panasonic 4 line wireless system and yes, all phones ring, just as if connected directly to the phone line. I had to get a standalone answering machine as the built-in answering machine on the wireless phone would not work as the answering machine connects to a separate jack on the Telebouncer. Once set however, it has been like a blessing from the almighty! I get one ring so I can capture callerid, then it stops unless the caller presses the number. Has brought much peace to the household!

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! :-)

I have to select "Blacklist" after the call if I want to block that one in the future. Sounds like you might have a defective unit.

I have similar set-up, AT&Tphones; with 1 base and three cordless handsets. Blocker does work throughout the house. I would also say that approx 99.9 % of all calls are blocked but occasionally I get 1 call where the phone rings 1 time and stops.

I set my call blocker to block every call and then just allow the area codes and numbers of the folks I want to call me. That way all calls with "Toll Free", "Private" or "Unknown" caller IDs are blocked. If you see a legitimate call blocked you can easily add them to your VIP list to unblock them. This was the best $100 I ever spent. Try it.

I am ready to junk my Uniden TRU9466 because it will not ring a distinctive ring for line 2. Nor, will it answer line 2 when it is ringing when I press the "answer" button. I have to manually select line 2 in order to answer it. I have had numerous email exchanges with their tech support and have not been able to resolve the line 2 issues.

I have this phone and I have it set to answer after 6 rings. When a call comes in, the display initially shows "Ringing", but before the second ring, it begins displaying the caller's ID. It continues showing the caller's ID through the remainder of the rings.

I don't block individual numbers, It eats up the 80 slots. I block just the area codes because the same scum bags call from the same area code, same company with hundreds of different numbers. I also have a panasonic phone which gives me 30 more call blocks. It works fantastic and has given me back some sanity. I pray someday somebody will put this low life in prison for life. I have had my digitone for almost a year now and it works!

I have not had this complaint about this from my callers. One thing I noticed though is that the caller ID takes at least two ring before it gets recognized.

Having only gotten this unit on November 6th I haven't had to use this feature and I'm not certain, but the owner's manual says that as long as you subscribe to 'caller ID' service you can store up to 30 numbers in the "Call Block" list. It also allows you to reject any calls automatically if they come from a phone with their number blocked.Hope that helps.

I do not use this feature much, but I believe it means you have to explicitly list all numbers you want blocked in the Call Block list in order to block them.

If you have caller id service from your phone company, you probably have a feature you can enable called Anonymous Call Rejection. That feature will block any call that does not have a number associated with it. Then any call that comes through would have a number unless it is an "out of area" call. The T Lock, problems not withstanding, can block any number you put on the blacklist. Be aware of the following: Caller ID blocking ONLY WORKS FROM RESIDENCE TO RESIDENCE. Commercial users can retrieve your number with an ANI box even if you block your caller id. I got that surprise one day when a business I called for price and availability on a local number with my caller id blocked, called me back on my number to tell me that they found what I was looking for. What a shock and an education I got.
