Can I block incoming calls from a specific country?

[jillybean]

is it possible to block absolutely every incoming call from a specific country? 

[McD]

I have a private number attempting to send a fax to my cell phone. Doesn't seem like there is any way to block. 

They are very persistent and I'm very annoyed. 

Anyway to stop this?

Everyday I get long distance calls, that are most likely robot sales calls. How can I remove robot calls?

Since 6 pm, I have been receiving phone calls from a No Caller ID number every 3 minutes. When I pick up, I hear nothing on the other end. How do I make it stop?

 

[Telemarketers]

lm constantly getting calls from bell telemarketers for various reasons I keep asking to be put on a no call list but nobody listens and the calls keep coming as many as 15 or more monthly very disappointing.

have been a bell customer over 8 years pay my bill always on time bell support is great if have a billing problem fixed immediately thanks 

just the telemarketers leave a bad taste and think maybe time to look at a different provider.

Good Day.

If the calls you are receiving are coming from Bell Telemarketers, you can limit the number of telemarketing calls that you receive, you (or a person you authorize to act on your behalf) can register your phone, mobile and fax numbers on the National Do Not Call List.

Ways to register:

• Online at www.LNNTE-DNCL.gc.ca
• By phone at 1 866 580- DNCL (3625)

There is no charge to register your number(s) on the National Do Not Call List. Your number(s) will remain on the National Do Not Call List indefinitely.

Telemarketing calls can come from scammers & fraudsters, masking their number as a company, government agency, financial institution, credit card company, etc.; E.g. Bell, CRA, TD, or someone else. They can even have you believe it is someone close to you that you even know. There is little that can be done today to stop this. I wish there was, but there is nothing out there that proven to be effective.

Next time, if you do answer the call, listen & say nothing. There is no reason for you to talk to anyone you do not know. The only advise I can give you is to Hang up! 

Thieves can be very persistent! There is no requirement for you to connect with them in any way, shape or form.  They want to sell you something, steal something from you or add you to their live contact list!

If they are not satisfied with the outcome of the first call to you, they may call back again & again hoping to catch you off guard.

Take care.

I agree. I had about 8 such calls today.. They all claimed to be from Bell, but they were fraudsters, scammers and had criminal intent. I ignore any calls from numbers I don’t recognize And let them leave a message. They never do.
