    No. As O2 generally texts you telling 086 whatever called.

    They often text you what the blocked number was

    Never. It's only ever recruitment agencies or someone trying to sell me something. I have enough to be doing in work without being polite to someone for the sake of it.

    I dont understand people too scared to answer their phone. Big blubbery vaginas the lot of them.

    Only if I am expecting someone who uses a blocked number to call me.

    Otherwise I ignore them

    i like getting calls from blocked numbers , i get a buzz out of trying to think who could it be , i hate when i miss a blocked number and they don't leave a message or ring back.

    I'm less likely to answer an 01 number because if you live outside Dublin it's always a company.

    Well I'm a vet and if someone has a sick animal in the clinic being treated and I for whatever reason need to ring them from my mobile, I'll block the number. The reason being that there are CERTAIN people who, if they get a hold of your private mobile number, will absolutely torture you day and night for ever more,treating you like a 24/7 private helpline.

    So if your sick dog is at the vets... Answer the blocked number!! Please :-)

    Just for those of you on Android

    Download the App 'Avast Mobile Security' (it's free)

    When downloaded select 'SMS & Call Filter'

    Add whatever numbers you want blocking, they will go straight to Voicemail, if you want Private Numbers blocking then choose 'All Hidden Numbers'

    Ya can also chose what time's you want certain numbers blocking, or 24/7.

    Blocks texts too :D:D

    Never answer blocked calls, I'd like to decide whether I want to take the call or not.

    Same with anyone calling to my front door, I'd rather I know someone was going to call in, again so I have the choice of whether I want to see someone or have the time to.
