Hi @bolo
If the numbers you want to block are dispayed this will make it simple. Most Android phones are the same.
Click on the number to highlight it on your screen. On the top right of the screen, you should have some settings or tools, click on that, you will be able to block the number from there.
Hi and thanks for the quick response. The calls in question are cold calls and what we really want to do, is not simply reject them, but block them all together.
Some phones have caller / text blocking facilities but they only work if the caller displays there number.
If they are withheld then it won't work.
The Network won't be able to block these numbers either.

We do have a copy of the numbers we want to block. The question is how do we do it?
Take a look in the user manual link.
I'll take a look too to see if the feature is supported in the phone.
My initial look seems to say it's a No.

@bolo If the number is not displayed and you only want to receive calls from people in your contacts list you can assign a silent ringtone to withheld numbers, it will ring (silently) until Voicemail kicks in.
Although your phone has a quick reject option it does not appear to have a call blocking facility.

Thank you Ann. Will try that with the next offending number.
