Is phone numbers blacklist feature implemented?

Markatrafik

I like to know if there is any way to solve the problem without installing commercial applications? and that require sending important data to the network... Of course, you could put some mark like (x) in the phonebook, than prevent call accepting from this contact. Also in simple phones you can set a separate MP3 for each caller, in the UT I did not even find such a function. Ideally have the ability to block entire prefixes or regexps, for example +17233* - do not receive calls

Not already.

@keneda Bad... it's been a few years since users have set the problem, but! there is something to do here

Keneda

@markatrafik Sure, but core devs have others priorities (first of all, release of uTouch based on Ubuntu 20.04).

I like this idea, I think a good solution would be to have a blacklist of contacts in the contacts app, all added numbers are blocked,
I recently had this problem with the company Jazztel, 15 calls in two days, the attitude of this company is shameful.

There's indeed an app for Ubuntu Touch, that is not free currently:

It costs 10 Euros. It's valid for 1 device (attached to the imei number) I did not test it to be honest.

There's also a solution from Ofono Sailfish that (perhaps) might be compiled for Ubuntu Touch:

My solution is to add the caller to my contacts list and name him SCAMMER. Whenever he calls I know not to answer.

@cliffcoggin it is not a technological way...

True, but it is quick, simple, and effective.
