Call Filter
This service is a telemarketer call screening service that blocks telemarketers and screens all incoming calls. Callers outside your local calling area will hear an announcement that instructs telemarketers to add your number to their DO NOT CALL list, while allowing other callers to press “1” to be connected. If the caller presses “1”, the service will remember their phone number so the next time they call you they will not hear the message. The service effectively screens telemarketers because they should not press “1” to connect. If an unwanted caller does get through, you can add them to your blocked list so they cannot call again.
