Hi @flyfisherman76

I am sorry to hear you are receiving nuisance calls.

We are unable to block a certain prefix from calling you, have you signed up to the Telephone Preference Service?

Please see Avoid unwanted texts or calls for some helpful tips on these types of calls.

Thanks.

Leanne.

Have used Telephone Preference Service. But this person is deliberately targeting me. As he is using different numbers to phone me from. This is classed as Nuisance Calling. Its BT responsibility to act, and stop these calls.

Hi @flyfisherman76

Is this on a landline or Mobile phone? Is it on EE or BT?

Thanks for coming back to us @flyfisherman76

I would suggest giving our broadband guides a call and they will see if there is anything they can suggest to stop these calls for you 🙂
