I tried that thing that leswad suggested. Seems to work pretty well. No robocalls got through, but they wound up in voicemail. Maybe 5 or 6 in a short while. That’s an improvement for sure. Now, if we could just shut down the landline robocalls.

We are testing this now with all the major carriers. They have started implementing but its still early.

That literally puts you on the do not call list.
I very rarely get soliciting calls anymore



Hello everyone, I'm not making this up lol. You only screw yourself when you hang up on that person.


Well, I get about 15 calls a day. I just tried your technique...let's see if it works!



Hopefully it does. I used to get a few a week, and I might get one once a month or so, but I've been doing this for a few years now.

I get probably 10 a day as well. If I don't have the number in my contacts then I don't answer. I'd rather have our military nuke the sorry POS.

You get a change yet, or still too early to tell?
