Hi People
Real briefly, I'll go over what we have and whats going on. I live with a disabled woman who is hard of hearing, and has Caption Call. When people call, what they say appears on the screen in text on the phone itself. This way she can read in case she missed what they said. Well as of the last few years, scammers etc, calls have picked up in numbers. Normally we dont answer. But again, they have gotten out of hand.
What Ive done, was go online, and find ways for this to end. Ive added house phone number to the "Do Not Call Registry" This only helped out a little. Then I did the *60 function we have, and add each number to a block list. This did help BIG time. Also added "Anonymous" and "Private Numbers" to be blocked as well. Well now the smart asses have gone the extra and we are now getting "None" as a caller ID from these people, and cant stop them. This "None" cant be blocked,cause its an official ID. For example:
me:
DavidFord
1-800-had-enough
Them:
None
(252) 656-3041 (This is an actual caller, with that ID)
They are now out of control (several different numbers, with that ID) The CaptionCall, is hooked up 3 different ways. First, into the main telephone connection in wall.(standard) The second, is through WiFi. And third, hard wired to the modem with one line. Will buy in this Obi work with CaptionCall and help filter these people out? If not, can you stare me in the right direction? Thank you.
