What is phone number blocking?
Phone number blocking is when a carrier applies a carrier-level block on a phone number that is being abusive or harassing you. Many carriers allow you to block calls on your own device, especially if you have an iPhone or Android device. For landline phones, you’ll need to contact your carrier directly in order to request the block, or utilize a call blocker to prevent these calls in the future.
