Blocked/Private Numbers
 
Do you guys answer blocked/private numbers?

Why or Why not?

Spectre_Cdn 12-05-2011 12:28 PM

Nope. I don't answer calls from any numbers that I don't know.

!Yaminashi 12-05-2011 12:32 PM

Same, I use to answer numbers I didnt know but this was back when I'd always be selling my phones. If its someone important they can leave me a voicemail or shoot me a text.

i pick up when i m not in good mood, good way to release anger

dangonay 12-05-2011 02:59 PM

I answer the phone and ask who they are looking for. Then I say "Yes, they're home right now, but we don't talk to people from blocked numbers. If you want to call back from a listed number then we'll be happy to talk".

I just pick up and don't answer. Same goes for out of area code numbers I don't recognize/am not expecting calls from.

NLY 12-05-2011 04:23 PM

I have my voicemail recorded like I've answered the phone, so they usually start talking and half way they'll hear the recording beep lol

BaoTurbo 12-05-2011 04:31 PM

way2quik 12-05-2011 04:48 PM

Nope.

At any given point in time.. I usually have things I'm waiting to hear back on.. jobs/projects/etc.. I wouldn't want to miss an important call like that

Nlkko 12-05-2011 05:56 PM

I used to ignoring even numbers that I don't know. Not anymore. Could be an important phone call or an opportunity.

Also the RCMP's calls are blocked.

You frequently receive phone calls from the RCMP???

Nlkko 12-05-2011 10:32 PM

No, but I was scammed before and during the investigation period, their incoming phone calls are blocked numbers. The operator number however wasnt blocked.

GLOW 12-06-2011 08:13 AM

every time i've answered a blocked # it's never been a good call or a call i wanted. now when i see it i'm always :suspicious:

mb_ 12-06-2011 09:17 AM

I pick up every call that comes through except for out of town numbers I don't recognize.
