Do you have to buy a subscription to use call blocker? If so, how much is it and where do you get it?

It's free and is built-in to phone. This is the greatest feature! Any call you've receive with a digit ID can be blocked. Once done, your phone will ring once if they call you again, then they're gone. The caller continues to hear the phone ring so no one is upset with a rejection notice of any kind. It's awesome.

All you need is a regular land line and I would imagine you'd need to have the caller ID feature from your phone company but to block calls you don't need to subscribe to anything else. I just check my caller ID, if I see a number I don't recognize I follow the directions for the phone and just block the numbers I don't want to get thru. Hope that helps!

That Call Block is a great feature ... you will be glad you have it! Thankfully there is no extra fee for it :)) .. just the cost to the phone company for the caller id, which I personally think is worth the money (whatever it is .. it's so mixed into the bill I'm really not sure What it is LOL) ... Enjoy your new phone!

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.

Yes the blocking feature does work. I get a great deal of unwanted calls. I just add them to the phones blocking feature and if that person calls again the phone will ring once and then go silent. Love that feature.

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.

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.

I know that call blocking is a part of my phone service package. I'm not sure if that really answers your question.

The premier service costs extra - $15/mo. I think. So you get it free for 90 days. Then you're hooked like we were. We really like that we can blacklist all the sales and "survey" calls especially now that political season never ends.

No, don't buy it because even if you sign up for the free plan. They will charge you in, you might have to call every month to have them adjust it. I have to ask my credit card company to block it and then they cancelled my plan. really a scam. I got charged for many months and they won't refund me.

Premier offers options like call forwarding. My favorite premier feature is the blacklist. By blacklisting nuisance calls we have made the phone much less annoying. We pay annually so not sure exactly how much...seems like it is less than $10/mo. Details are available at Ooma.com.

Yes, it has call blocking. I don't know how many calls it will block, but I've blocked quite a few so far.

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 don't believe so. I have not found a function on the phone that allows me to block calls.

First off, you must have caller ID (CID) service from your phone carrier. If you receive repeated calls from anyone (i.e telemarketers) you can select this number with your handset and select "call block". Anytime this number tries to call you again it will only ring once on your handset and "busy out" the offending caller. I have received calls which have left no message on the answering machine but sometimes call two to three times a day.(or more) This feature blocks all those unwanted and annoying calls.

It has an answering machine. The subscription is for special ringtones, etc.

i would have to find the manual to answer that question. The way the call blocker works is that we really haven't had much need to block calls. If the number is not on our "approved" list (entered into our list of approved callers), it simply doesn't ring through, but the caller can still leave a voicemail. The times I have actually moved calls to the "R" list which blocks the calls entirely, is when we keep getting annoying voicemails from a single caller (typically a solicitor).
