Asked By CuriousCat42 On

I'm a minimalist and usually carry a flip phone, but my company recently gave me a new mobile phone that rings non-stop with spam and telemarketing calls. On average, it gets 2-3 calls every hour, along with 5-6 scam texts each day. I'm looking for effective ways to manage this situation and reduce the nuisance. Any suggestions?

If it gets too overwhelming, you could ask for a new number! I had similar issues with my landline when I first set it up, and they switched my number without any hassle after one call to customer service. It worked like a charm!

Definitely reach out to your IT department for help. Since it's a company phone, they might have solutions or restrictions on what you can install. If it's an iPhone, turning on the 'Silence Unknown Callers' feature in the settings can automatically send most spam calls to voicemail.

You can try using an app called Truecaller to block unwanted numbers effectively. It identifies spam numbers and can automatically block them, which might help reduce the influx of annoying calls!

A simple trick I use is logging spam numbers in my directory with a fake name and then blocking them. This way, I can keep track of who keeps calling! I also turn my phone off at night to avoid being disturbed. You might consider doing that too, especially if the calls are excessive.
