Q: How do I block Unknown Caller or No Caller ID calls?

How do I block Unknown Caller or No Caller ID calls? A lunatic who got hold of my number and don't stop calling me. It's ruining my business as I only work with a mobile number. I'm getting 400 Unknown calls a day and no business cause my phone is busy all the time. Samsung has this feature but I refuse to believe Apple don't have a solution for this problem.

iPhone 6, iOS 9.3.1

    Asking again will not get you a different answer.

     

    You can't. your carrier may offer anonymous call blocking. Contact them.

     

    Better yet, contact the police. That's harassment. They can trace the source of the calls. If they are coming from a single person, that's a criminal offense.

    And the Samsung "feature" won't help in this case either, cause the line will be busy as well. It only "blocks" by hanging up when the call comes in, doesn't prevent the call from occurring. You either prevent it from occurring on the line (carrier) or on the miscreant's side (police). That's why Apple doesn't bother in giving you false hope and büllshît "solutions".
