Dear brown136,

Yes, you CAN block calls through 1571, though I think- if you have the Number- it can be, a while, AFTER the call has come through.

I and others have 'Posted' about, quite a few, Scam/ Fraudulent Number Scams- here and elsewhere. I also quoted a BT Fraud Number, which I am repeating here- 0800-661441. This is a Dedicated Fraud Number, for BT Customers- I assume the other 'Providers' have their own Systems. Does anybody know any Numbers?

Stay Safe, Hang Up or just Don't answer THAT Call.
