I’ve had calls made from doctors offices, etc. made by assistants or nurses on their cell phones, which often don’t even have a recognizable area code!

So if you block all those numbers you don’t know you’ll miss all your doctors calls.

On this device you can create a white list that allows only those calls thru. Shows a green light for known white list callers and flashes red if it is not on the list, hit the big red button to add to blocked list. Works great!

I would greatly appreciate some advice re: HOW to stop continuous robo cell phone calls ( claiming to be a US loan service) They are simply relentless! I have tried everything.. blocked the number which does not work since they switch numbers daily. I've reported this multiple times.... nothing seems to work.
