How can i block someone from calling my home phone?

How do I block someone from calling me on my home phone?

• Answer:

  Get a DECT 6.0 phone that includes "Call Block" and "Night Mode". I use is the Panasonic DECT 6.0 cordless phone model KX-TG9333. http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=9240139# This phone can be programmed to "Call Block" specific phone numbers that you don't want to be bothered by. Block up to 20 separate numbers. It also has a "Night Mode" that prevents the phone from ringing during late night hours. Just program in the times you don't want to be disturbed while sleeping. This will keep anyone from calling you at night when you are sleeping. I think it is great that phone manufacturers are building these features into phones. Now we don't have to pay the phone company more money just to block annoying phone But if you want to skip the answering machine, then go for the KX-TG9313, which is a little cheaper. And if you still want Call Block and Night Mode, but want to keep the price down to a minimum, then you may want to try the KX-TG9361B model, which is just a singe handset unit and no answering machine: http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=9240133
