System

We have a BT phone that will block a range of calls [BT6500] The only calls that get through are ones we have put on a VIP list anything else goes to the answer machine and the phone doesn't even ring

Aldi also have one that says it blocks calls sorry didn't see the price but they are in a glass case.

Complain EVERY time they ring. https://complaints.tpsonline.org.uk/consumer/?/MConsumer/Default.aspx
Then sue them for your time. I am sure there is a sory about someone taking them to court.
By the way blocking witheld calls can block friends and family, my MIL has a witheld number.

Do their survey but just answer their questions with ridiculous made up answers. It won't help them at all and should be a bit of fun for you.

That won't help if they are based overseas as many of these are.

The person in question is this guy who owns the following website:

However, if the OP wants to stop these calls ASAP, they need to invest in a call blocker such as truecall.

i'm another who has been plagued by calls, if its not ambulance chasers, accident in 2012 and as they claim to have a right to bombard me with calls for up to 6 years...

so i used an app called true caller, and my unwanted calls has gone down from about 10 a day to about2, true caller has identified who and what is sales and spam calls and just blocks them for me, wish i'd known about it sooner, even better the app is free for android, so i assume free also on other platforms.

Getting rid of my landline was a very good decision and I have never regretted it. This is persecution, and you should not have to endure it.
