Over here enter "Number that starts with" " +140", +9140 In Truecaller App go to settings > Block > Block Someone Manually > Number Series I've pre-blocked all numbers starting from +140 to win half of the battle, You may skip this step, however your results may vary & you may need more manual intervention. I have installed Truecaller, it does have a data privacy concern highlighted multiple times, I haven't found any good alternative yet so I'm using it. I use an Android phone, I am not sure for the steps/apps in an Iphone apologies in advance to Apple users if this doesn't work out for you.ġ. I'm talking about reducing the spam on your existing number without having to pay any additional fees. I'm not talking about changing numbers, its extremely painful to switch your number, have it updated with banks, friends, demat account, insurance, mutual funds, electricity dept., and god knows how many places which is a herculean task. Don't want to take any names, we all know the infamous callers.Īs of now I get a maximum of 2 to 3 calls which can be handled easily on worst days & some sunny days days I get 0 calls from telemarketers. I got a scripted reply, "We will update it in our system & ensure you do not get a call next time" which we all know never happens. I was tired of telling them that "I have surrendered your credit card, I no longer want to enroll in it again", "My number is on DND list, please check before calling me", "I do not need a personal/pre-approved loan". These were mostly from finance companies, stock market channels, credit card sellers, donations. Used to get 10 to 15 calls on each of my number, yes my DND was fully active. Let me share what my call history was like before I started taking the steps which I'll be sharing.
