Blocking Private Unknow Anonymous Callers
Feb 23 2008, 10:53 AM EST
Private on my handset 8925 Tilt comes in regularly for the last two weeks and my carrier ATT in United States says they wont block these calls. I must get software or use a different handset. HTC recommended a software called "BlackList: made by steelsoft and sold at Handango.com and I bought it with refreshing back up incase if get another phone for less than $10 US. It sends callers with actual area codes and phone numbers to my voicemail but there is no way to block Private callers. I put in the word Private in the list as if it were a number and that did not work. Please help...thanks w

I asked the ATT help desk, they said there is no way to block a 'private' call from coming in. As more telemarketers access cell numbers; this annoyance will grow and so customers will turn away from ATT & Tilt product. ATT must provide a simple service to support 'block call' on any & all 'Private' caller. The other solution is to provide a silent ring assignment to any 'Private' caller but ATT needs to get the lead out soon... their customers won't stand for this; after all where did the telemarketers get your number from?

You might also check into AT&T's "Smart Limits" which allows you to block whatever number you want.
