Call Block
If you subscribe to Caller ID, you can save phone numbers to the call block list. When a call comes in, the phone compares the received phone number to the numbers on the call block list. If the phone number is on the list, the phone replaces the caller's name with Call Blocked and blocks the call.
The call block list holds 20 entries, and all handsets share the same list. You can add entries by selecting Add Call Block in the CID menu that displays after you have viewed the CID record or through the Call Blocking menu (see below). (Only one handset can edit the call block list at a time.)
