Bloctel woes
The system of informing ‘Bloctel’ [new service set up to stop unwelcome cold calling] does not work for most calls. For most of my calls the telephone goes ‘dead’ when I pick it up.
For reporting, too much information is required and is mostly not forthcoming from the person calling. If we could just provide the number calling, the date and time! Then it may work.
