I have a 100% foolproof method to deal with unwanted calls - I don't pick up calls from unknown numbers. If they really want to contact me, they'll send me an SMS.
- lazzlazzlazz 9y agoI absolutely guarantee you miss some wanted calls in cases where people don't understand your unusual rule.
- lscotte 9y agoI do the same thing, and it does work actually. Sure, I miss the first call, but when they leave a message I then know who it is and call back. If they don't bother to leave a message, then I know the call wasn't important. A message can be voice mail, and not SMS.
- acjohnson55 9y agoGenerally, people who really need to get a hold of you will find a way. The great irony of this era of connectivity is that there's no single way to definitively reach me. I'm so inundated with spam and notification noise that I tune basically everything out.
- pavel_lishin 9y ago> Generally, people who really need to get a hold of you will find a way. Having tried to reach someone from jail, this is surprisingly hard when you don't have your cellphone with you, and one of the few numbers you've memorized doesn't accept collect calls.
- ballenf 9y agoI've got another method that's working. I'll answer the call and immediately mute the line. Then wait. If it's a real person they'll talk first. Robocallers will hang up. And they seem to call less after.
