Cellc MyTolls and Call Blocking

[scud]

Has anyone had success with the Cellc Call Blocking feature on their Mytools website?
I can't seem to get it to work but at all.

What I'd like to find out is the following.

What is the correct number format to use ( +27 87*** or 087**) ?
Can it block calls from all unknown/private numbers ?
Can it use wildcards to blacklist numbers ?
Is there a limit to how many numbers it can block?

It would be a really useful tool if only there was some documentation!

edit: it seems that IOS 7 will have call & sms blocking, about time !!!

Hi s"scud" use 087.. format. You cannot block unknown number, but you can block unwanted contacts, first you need to save the the numbers and filter them to be redirected directly to your voicemail.
You can block as many number as you want.

PM me your email and i'll email for details... *DM*

Add the number as a contact using either international format prefixed with + or local format prefixed with 0.

Select contacts -> select the contact you want to give rules -> Select Filter -> select the My Voicemail radio box and save.

The contact will now be routed to your voicemail

To Block an unknown number do the following

Go to Contacts -> in contacts you will see a contact saved as Private Number -> select that contact -> In the pop up window Select Filter -> select the radio box that says My Voicemail and save

All unknown and private numbers will now go to Voicemail.

All unknown and private numbers will now go to Voicemail.

Awesome, thanks. I'll give this a go.

I use it for blocking some numbers,
Very handy...

I haven't tried blocking private number,
But if you look at recent activity that had private number, click on view contact
Then click filter and voicemail and save.

NB: I have not tried it so I don't know if it works, you can give it a try

Edit: Ok Wakizy says it'll block private numbers.

Is it possible to block sms and texts as well?

Is it possible to block sms and texts as well?

Hi mcclod, On Mytools, you can only block unwanted numbers. The functionality to block sms's is yet to be added. *DM*

Hey CellC

I was just wondering if you guys are doing something about the mytools app? I see on playstore I am not the only user who could never log in. Invalid Url error is returned for the past 2 months when I try login. I have downloaded the app 3 times in the hope of an update.

Any feedback?
