Judging by the number of nuisance callers it is reporting as having
blocked, the number of such callers trying to get through has
increased, just as I put the new phones in.

Mostly their number is 'unavailable, some present a number with 0020 or
00??. Sometimes the 0020's are valid numbers if the initial zero is
deleted. I am getting calls from spoofed local numbers, usually none
existent numbers, over the weekend one was spoofed to present a very
local number from within the village, so I rang the number just to make
sure - there had been no one in the house at the time, to dial us.

Got the best phone blocker ever.

No phone. No line. (Well, there is a physical line, but not set up and
never has been.)

+1. Line (for broadband) but no phone. Heaven. I use the inclusive
minutes on my mobile or Whatsapp if I need to make a call.

It makes "line rental" even more of a rip-off than ever.
