About Smart call blocker*
If you have subscribed to caller ID service,
then you can use Smart call blocker to
screen robocalls, telemarketing calls and
unwanted calls for you, while allowing
welcome calls to get through.
†
† The screening feature of Smart call blocker is
applicable to home calls only. All incoming cell calls
will get through and ring.
You can set up your lists of welcome
callers and unwelcome callers. Smart call
blocker allows calls from your welcome
callers to get through, and it blocks calls
from your unwelcome callers.
For other unknown home calls, you
can allow these calls, block these calls,
or forward these calls to the answering
system.
With some easy configurations, you can
set to only filter robocalls by asking the
callers to press the pound key (#) before
the calls are put through to you.
You can also set Smart call blocker to
screen incoming home calls by asking
the callers to record their names and
press the pound key (#). After your caller
completes the request, your telephone
rings and announces the caller’s name.
You can then choose to block or answer
the call, or you can forward the call to
the answering system. If the caller does
not respond or record his/her name,
the call is blocked from ringing through.
When you add your welcome callers
to your directory or allow list, they will
bypass all screening and ring directly to
your handsets.
