A range of flexible blocking options

    Your own personalised list to block people you don't want to hear from
  • Bar Withheld Numbers
    Block all incoming calls with a hidden caller ID. We also offer the flexibility for you to receive international calls even if the caller ID is hidden^

    In the unlikely event that you want to receive a marketing call, to ensure it won’t be blocked by the Junk Calls feature, you may unblock the caller with the Unbar Junk Callers feature
  • VIP Only
    By activating this feature, you will only receive calls from numbers on your "VIP List", while all other calls will be forwarded to voicemail. This feature is especially useful when you are abroad as it eliminates unnecessary roaming charges and leaves you undisturbed when sleeping in a different time zone
