    I live in Canada…and live with my 90+ yr old mom at home. We are soooo tired of these calls, it’s ridiculous and the phone company won’t do anything about them coz these callers make numerous fake ID numbers. Ughhh…when will it end !

    There never should have been a "Do not call" agency created. The most common sense and simple solution is to create a "Do Call" list. If you sign up and are on the list, you'll get robo calls. If you are not signed up, then it's illegal to make a robo call and the caller will pay a huge fine. Problem solved

    Radio Shack (remember them?) had a box that would automatically disconnect as soon as it was a computer call and send a message to the computer that the number doesn't exist. I have a friend that still has one and she says it works just fine.

    They are AWESOME!!! I have one for my home and after I started having quiet days I bought one for my church, too. I also bought a set of wireless call blocker phones from Panasonic. Now I can block 2,000 calls from the box and 2,000 more from the wireless phones. I cannot put a price on having peaceful and quiet days again. btw, I just started blocking area codes and certain prefixes, which is a wonderful feature. I searched on youtube for how to block area codes and prefixes with Panasonic and found the info I needed.

    My wife just lets the phone ring but sometimes she'll press the End Call button to silence it. On my cellphone I keep Do Not Disturb turned on all the time and set to only allow my contacts to ring through. In Android 11 there's now a Screen Call button when the phone rings. When you press it the caller is notified that their call is being screened and to go ahead and say they are calling. If it's a human they usually just hang up but if it's a robocall their message shows up on the screen. Either way I block the phone number.

    Neither do I. Problem is, my elderly mother does despite being scolded multiple times. Just last night I got so frustrated that I started picking up and hanging up then blocking the number. On one of my pick ups I hear her answer the phone too and next thing you know she's getting ready to give the caller her medicare number so she could get a free fat belt or some nonsense. I'm trying nomorobo tonight once I get home.

    The Panasonic Call Blocker box lets you block 2,000 callers, including area codes and prefixes. Works on landlines and on digital phone lines, as well. I have one of the boxes and I also have a cordless set of their call block phones, so I can block 4,000 calls. You know you live in strange times when days without your phone ringing off the hook and feel kind of weird. The Panasonic products are definitely worth their weight in gold. I am not affiliated with the company in any way.

Then I get another call with the same area code but different numbers after the area code, then I block that call with the same “M Bingham”, then I block that new number. And soon enough I get another call. Anyone know what this is?

    Cell phone companies need to get with the program. They are a joke when it comes to blocking that stuff. my landline tele marketer screening. works awesome. Whoever calls they hear a recording that says," the number you have dialed does not accept calls from solicitors. If you are a solicitor please hang up and add. Do not call to your list otherwise stay on the line or press 1 to be connected." Works awesome... have not had a junk call since

    A landline phone is your house phone, the type that has the cord. Cordless phones are not considered, landline. Cordless phones are more convenient, but did you know; if u have more than one house phone in your home, one of those phones needs to be a landline phone with the" curly cord", because whenever there is a power outage, cordless phones are useless. Cordless phones will not work during a power outage, but the landline phone, will.
