My phone starts ringing at around 7:30 am. I have called that number that blocks calls, I still get them. I have call blocking, I can block up to 200 numbers, It blocks them for a little while, they just change their number. I've had to empty my blocked calls twice and am now on my 3rd fill of blocking numbers!! I make it a point to never, ever, under any circumstances, even if I needed something they are selling, buy anything through phone calls! I've told those phoney scammers that tell me that I have a problem with my windows that I don't have a computer!
I have also just set the phone down and left it until I hear the phone disconnected noise. There is nothing that we can do to stop these things, they should be against the law with heavy fines when caught! I do not answer the phone and tell everyone I know that is calling to just start talking and when I hear them I will answer.
It is more than annoying. I can not sleep at night and can only sleep during the day---the stupid calls keep waking me up adding to my fatigue. I am in pain 24/7 and my one relief is sleep--as soon as I wake up my pains start and makes it hard to go back to sleep and within moments of going back to sleep, the phone rings again! I can't just silence it as I do get some important calls, seeing as I am in hospice and have nurses and doctors and such that call me, not to mention family and friends who are concerned for me. I have counted over 20 phone calls in one day (excluding all needed calls)
