Nuisance Calls

[whisperer]

Hey all,

I've recently upgraded my contract and got myself a Nokia 6300, love the phone.

The problem is I keep getting nuisance calls from 01792 761 030, i looked it up on "who calls me" and found they are a nuisance company, Splash UK, who autodial and if you don't answer quickly enough they hang up. This is making it very hard for me to get hold of someone at the other end and tell them to shove their calling somewhere not very polite.

So... rather than get a call a day which I never get to in time I was wondering if it was possible to block the number so even if they call I don't get a ringing phone bugging me. Any ideas on how to do this?

Thanks for the help

You should be able to bar calls/numbers.

There was an article in the guardien newspaper a few days ago about this company called Splash.
