If someone could provide a link where I could find an answer to this question I would really appreciate it.
Here's the problem. I have a GV account with two numbers.
One number is fine. The other number gets a lot of spam calls almost entirely from two different area codes in Texas.
The area codes are 817 and 682.
I googled for a way to block certain area codes, but it doesn't seem that this is possible.
It's not a huge problem as there are just a few spam calls everyday or so, it's just a little annoying and I would like to figure out some way to block these certain area codes.
I should probably post this on the GV help forums, but they're not always the most helpful there. Some real grumpy sorts. :)
Anyways, thanks for your time.....
Doing this directly from Google Voice is not possible. Doing this on the Obi is discussed here.

Thank you very much for that link.
Should be just what I needed.....
Edit: The solution in the link should already do the same thing as what I wrote below.
If the calls are bugging you on other phones linked to your Google Voice number create a call treatment that sends the call to Callcentric voicemail immediately and set the caller ID for the call treatment to.
x817xxxxxxx
Create a second Call treatment for the other area code.
x682xxxxxxx
This will cause calls to be picked up immediately so you will only get 1 or 2 rings at most on your non Obi phones linked to Google Voice.
