I would change your phone number. I've had the same 650 area code since 2003, and I'll go a couple weeks, sometimes more without a spam call. (or any phone call for that matter - except for maybe the pizza delivery person?)
I don't believe I've received a single spam call in the last 45 days - so your phone number is on some horrible list, I feel for you.
- UncleEntity 4y agoIf you are diligent in telling every single one of them “take me off your call list“ it does make a difference. I started receiving spam calls again (after a very long time without a single one) because one of the weasels I had to deal with to buy a house apparently sold my information. I ignored them for a while, mostly because they call when I’m sleeping during the day, but then started answering to get off the lists and haven’t had one in a while. Seems like one company is responsible for the bulk of them and once you get off their list things get significantly better. All of which I shouldn’t have to do because I’m on the (completely worthless) do not call list.
- yunwal 4y agoIf by “it makes a difference” you mean more people will call you once someone has verified your number is real, sure. Never pick up spam calls if you can help it.
- bearmode 4y agoThey'll know your number is real as soon as it starts ringing. Tells them that the number not only exists, but your phone is switched on and accepting calls. If it goes straight to voicemail, they still know it exists.
