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


Sadly many switchboards do this - so you'll likely loose some calls you
actually want.


So it's gone form "most businesses" in someone else's post to "many
switchboards". Does anyone have any hard *facts* about how many
"businesses" do not have any form of presentation number?


I can only speak for those I have dealings with. Two prospective employers
(I'm freelance) have switchboards which withhold the number.
