How do I block persistent spam calls?

Two or three times a day I get a spam call from a telemarkter representing Capital One bank.  I have YouMail that ditches each call afterward, plus I have enable the Apple menu that says it blocks the number.  But it does not, and I keep geting these nuisance calls every day.  It is frustrating!!

Did you tell the telemarketer that you no longer want to receive their calls?
Is the phone number that calls always the same?

  • How can I block persistent unwanted text messages from Games Co.

    One day an uninvited text message arrived on my iPhone to click to win an iPad. Stupidly I clicked, won nothing, but now I get daily SMS messages and Safari website from a US games Co. Trying to sell games, wallpaper and other junk. Trying to unsubscribe the "home" website is a blank page and the contact phone number is permanently engaged. This is more than inconvenient it's stressful. How can I block this daily scam on my iPhone?

    It is pure and simple deception and Apple should have a remedy.
    You're right. I mean, all they have to do is snap their fingers and wish the scam out of existence.
    What makes you think Apple is responsible for chasing down scams on the Internet?

  • How do u block a contacts calls and texts without blocking them?

    I want to block calls and text messages from my ex boyfriend and his family members. However, I don't want to delete their contact information. I just don't want to hear from any of them for a while. Does anyone know how to do this?

    The blocking of calls and text messages is a carrier function.  Contact your cell phone carrier to see if they offer this service.  There are no iPhone apps that will block phone calls or text messages.  If your carrier doesn't provide call or text message blocking is to assign a silent ringtone to the numbers you want blocked and ignore them.

    Firefox doesn't do email, it's strictly a web browser.
    If you are using Firefox to access your mail, you are using "web-mail". You need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.

  • How can I block spam e-mail when the "from address" keeps changing?

    How can I block a spam mail sender when that spamer uses a different e-mail address everytime!  I have set up a rule with the spamers name (which does not change) and setting the rule to "is equal to" but it is not working.

    Verizon can't fix it and yahoo can't change your Samsung application function.
    Just use the free Yahoo app.
    i Have a yahoo and Gmail and use separate apps for this reason.

  • How do you block no caller ID calls

    I have blocked someone on my iPhone. They realized they can call me under private. How can I block a private call?

    Not true!  Do Not Disturb blocks all calls except those from the folks you specify.

  • How do I block anonynous calls

    I received a call this morning at 4:38 am that had the caller id info blocked.  How do I block these anonymous calls?  If I only get the reply "sign up for family base" (additional overpriced monthly fee), I will just start shopping around for another carrier when my contract expires September 28th.

    Look into You Mail or Google Voicemail services - they are free third party options and do offer options for dealing with anonymous or ":unavailable" incoming numbers.

  • Block someone from calling

    How dp i block someone from calling me on my nokia nuron 5230

    It's very rare for any phone to support this feature and I don't think any nokia phones do. You will need an application to do it for you and even then it isn't techincally blocking the call it's just hiding the fact that someone has called.
    If you check the ovi store there are multiple applications for this kind of thing but i'm sure someone here can recommend a good application to use.

  • Blocking Anonymous Phone Calls

    How can I block anonymous phone calls in Tampa, FL?

    I don't think you can block those numbers with the free blocking option, but you can block them with Usage Controls, which will allow you to block up to 20 numbers, including Restricted numbers, 411, and "000-000-0000."  It costs $4.99 per line. It has other features as well.:
    http://www.vzw.com/usagecontrols
    If you don't want to pay for the service, you could just not answer and/or send the calls to voice mail; maybe after a few attempts they'll quit calling.
    Good luck!
