How to avoid or block 'Unknown call' in Fido


I have Fido plan with caller ID on 'Motorola K1'. If someone 'legal' calls me I can see his phone number on the screen. Lately I started receive a lot of calls that is indicated as 'Unknown call' on my screen. Look like some one used Skype or …

Do you know how to avoid or block that calls?
I do not like to hear them
Does Fido or my 'Motorola K1' cell phone have options for that?

I seriously doubt it can be blocked, but it its possible, customer service can take care of that.

Of cause, I call to customer service today
They said that it is impossible to block a phone number that is not existing or not in a list

I hope it is not a joke.
May be I can do something on my cell phone level?

Do you only get a few unknown calls? or All of them are unknown.

If all are unknown its cause you didnt buy caller ID, therefore all incoming calls would be listed as Unknown

Well, Im guessing its just a prank or something someone or a friend is playing on you.

There's a way you can block your own number while calling someone.

Re: How to avoid or block 'Unknown call' in Fido


not really sure about your phone, but what im using is the samsung u900 soul, and if u go into the call settings, you can actually block all calls that does not show their user id.. in a way it rejects the call, and will show up on your screen as a missed call instead of ringing none stop

hope this helps

Fido has a feature called "incoming calls blocked", you can't block just 1 TN !
