You can block specific telephone numbers from calling your landline phone by using a call-blocking feature utilizing the *60 code.

With the *60 blocking code, you can create a list of up to 12 preselected numbers that will not be allowed to ring through to your phone. A recipient whose number is blocked hears a prerecorded message that informs them that you are not taking calls at this time.

INSTRUCTIONS

1) Dial "*60" after you hang up from the number that you want to block. If you are using a rotary telephone, dial "1160."

2) Listen to the announcement, and follow the prompts to activate the service.

3) Dial "#01#" to add the last number that contacted you to the block list. Press "#" to enter a new number to your call block list, then enter the area code and phone number when prompted to do so. Press "#."

4) Follow the remaining prompts to exit the system.

Tips & Warnings

- Call blocking does not block calls from mobile phones, pay phones, VOIP lines and non-call blocking-equipped areas.

- To CANCEL call blocking, dial "*80" or "1180" if you are using a rotary phone.

Call you phone company and ask to have it blocked

Answer

A caller ID system with call screening capability will let you block unwanted calls. You can remove the number in your preset list of contacts so that the number will automatically directed to your voicemail or would experience a busy tone. But this system would depend to your provider.

Some VOIP providers provide a web interface for the subscriber to enter their own blocking requirements. Most traditional telcos providing hardwired landlines do not offer this service. Unfortunately, your only other options are to pursue legal avenues when necessary, screen your calls or change your phone number
