[QUOTE="Bill Gates Jr., post: 1929166, member: 256913"] Thanks guys, Unfortunately the number does not show up on the blocked list. Most, but not all, show up on the blocked list. Not sure why. Problem solved. Just went to the Spam contact and deleted the number from the contact list. Simple solution. Must have had a senior moment. The way I set this up is I would have a contact named "(808) Blacklist". Anytime I would get an (808) spam call, I would add that number as another "(808) Blacklist" contact. Next time it called, up its would show up as "(808) Blacklist", and can be ignored. My reason for doing this is so the caller would not know his number is blocked, because it would still ring (silent ring). Still got many more 808 spam calls. Just add them as an "(808) Blacklist" contact. Between "(808) Blacklist" and "(808 Blaclist" contacts, there are well over 100 (808) spam numbers so far. Tell me if this is a round about way of accomplishing the same thing by simply blocking the call? Also if a call is blocked, will it show up as "blocked number" or not show up at all? Pete [/QUOTE]
