This will sound like a non-problem compared to some of the other posts here. Please forgive me if so.
This is about scam calls on my cell phone. I have received over 30 spam calls every single working day in the last six months. My phone has become completely useless outside of 3-4 apps because I had to mute all notifications.
Initially, I tried to block and report those calls but soon gave up because there were just so many every single day. Then I tried to receive some and most of them seem like selling me end of life coverage. I am not even that old!
I have missed a few important calls due to this. It has become a significant nuisance right now in my life.
Can I do something about it? Can someone help me get rid of all these calls? I would greatly appreciate if someone could help me effectively get rid of such calls.
- spacebanana7 3y agoI recommend setting a silent ringtone by default and then manually setting ordinary ringtones for your contacts. Alternatively, if you’re on iOS, there seems to be a setting that automatically does this at: Settings > Phone > Silence Unknown Callers: Set this to ON.
- hypercube33 3y agoMy parents went through the same thing. You should be able to go to your carrier and get a new phone number and if they push back explain why. My mom was being threatened over the phone by debt collectors daily at all hours of the day for the previous numbers owner so I feel you. It sucks getting a new number but sounds like it's the best action to take. Make sure you're cautious about handing it out online but I don't even know anymore if that has any real bearing on spam calls these days.
