4 Reasons Call Blocking is Awesome

4 Reasons Call Blocking is Awesome!

Call blocking is an underrated feature that many customers neglect.  Since most traditional landline companies and mobile phone providers don't offer the feature, a lot of customers forget it exists.  The day you start putting call blocking to use is the day you swear you will never live without it.  Here are a few reasons why call blocking is awesome:

1.  It eliminates unwanted calls:  The days of checking caller ID, referencing the number, then waiting for the phone to stop ringing and go to voicemail are over.  I have even seen people pick up and hang up the phone quickly hoping the caller doesn't notice.  Now all you need to do is add the number to your blocking list and all calls from telemarketers, exes, family members, sales people and whoever else you don't want to talk to will hear the soothing sound of a busy signal.   

2.  It helps you resist temptation:  It's hard to admit, but every time someone calls from an anonymous number, curiosity sets in and you can't help but wonder who is calling you.  You think to yourself "maybe I won that contest at the mall" and before you know it you're on the phone with someone trying to sell you a life insurance policy.  With anonymous call blocking, you don't have resist temptation because you eliminate temptation.

3.  It allows you to be selective:  There are times when you only want to speak with a select group of people.  After a long day at work, you can probably count on one hand who you are interested in talking to.  By using the TeleBlend Contacts feature, you can assign the important people in your life to specific contact groups.  Once you have assigned someone to a group, you can forward those calls to another number and let everyone else go to voicemail. 

4.  It lets you take a night off:  Sometimes an untimely or unsolicited call can ruin your night or ruin the moment.  If you have a quiet night or a romantic evening planned at home, take advantage of the TeleBlend Do Not Disturb feature.  When you enable Do Not Disturb, all incoming calls go directly to voicemail.  Give it a try sometime, it's a much better solution than taking your phone off the hook and it might help you remember how enjoyable some peace and quiet can be. 

Like all TeleBlend features, call blocking and forwarding can be managed in real-time, from any computer or smart phone.  Play around with them and I think you will be pleasantly surprised by how much they can enhance your user experience.
