Is there anyway to block 'Number Withheld' calls, *ie., without the phone
ringing.


If you do this, it is likely your Doctor, the emergency services and so on
will not be able to call you.


None of them have ever called me. If I need them, I call them. most
large organisations that want individuals to remain anonymous will
have a number that they present (e.g. the main switchboard), rather
than the numbers of individual extensions, so are not "number
withheld" anyway.
