Block private incoming call

Post by aloetic@gmail.com »

Hi Steve,

I am wondering if there is a way to block anonymous callers. From time to time my phone rings during the night without a caller id.
Thanks!

Presently there is no way for us to block anonymous / private callers. I don't foresee any development plans either.

I just purchased an ata unit, and noticed "Selective/Anonymous Call Rejection" in the ad. When the unit arrives I'm hoping the feature works :)

If the device itself allows "Selective/Anonymous Call Rejection" as pete_fpl said, the call will most likely be rejected. We as a service provider however do not offer such a service.
