Yea, No not so much. Cell or LL makes no difference. The only way I stop them on my IPhone is to turn on Do Not Disturb in the settings menu. All the calls from my contacts come through ok but the robots go right to voice mail and I never hear the ring.


Does that work??? I'll give it a try. I never answer the call unless it shows a name I recognize from my contacts lists.

I read in the AARP magazine that if they can get around $4000 from just 'one' call, it is like a years salary for most of them. That's why they keep trying!

Don't give your number out to anybody but those who must have it.

I saw a system that may work. When you recognize it as a "robocall", hand the phone to a 3yo and say it's from Santa

No blocking service required. It is a free Verizon feature.


I think that was the intent
