Can I block incoming calls by area code or wildcards? Help!

<< < (2/3) > >>

giqcass:
I have used the solution above and it worked well for me.  I kept getting incoming fax machines calling from a specific area code.  Can't remember which one but I removed the block after they quit for a few months.

The solution on this message thread had worked for me until recently.  I  have GV on both ph1 and ph2 on a Obi202.  Now I keep getting robocalls from area code 959 on both lines.  My first port is my residential home phone, and the second is a fax line.  Somehow these 959 calls have been getting through.  They call three times a day. 

I have this string on both ph1 and ph2 lines of my X_InboundCallRoute {(1?959xxxxxxx):},{ph}

Has something changed recently and is there another way to block these numbers?

My current hardware version number is    1.4
My current software version number is    3.2.2 (Build: 5898EX)

azrobert:
Try: {(+1959xxxxxxx):},{ph}

TeddyDaBear:
Thank you azrobert,

The plus sign seems to have done the trick for me.  I did not get any calls from 959 area codes on either line today.  Nothing has shown up on the GV history too.  So far, looks good.

Do you know how to send these spam calls into a black hole instead of voice mail, where they leave a voice mail for me to delete.
