Blocking single nuisance number

As the title, someone tells me that you can block one nuisance caller’s number by press keys on your hand set in a particle order.
Anyone know how please?

what phone you on about or you on about home number?

your phone provider can stop these numbers for you.

and some mobiles have the option to block a number.

Maybe assign a silent ring tone to it??
That way even if it goes through, you won´t listen.

You can ask BT to block specific numbers but it cost. Also you can ask them to Block your out going caller ID if you require. I had mine blocked so my work could not call me at home as everone had Caller ID at there desk and I didn;t want my home number to become public knowledge.

If its a company (or even if its not) I strongly suggest going onto ex-directory. My Dad did it when I was at home and we very rarely got a salesman calling. If they did we just asked where did you get our number we are ex directory. They always hung up quicker than we could!!

I did it the day we moved in and not had a cold sales call in five years!
