Can you block an unknown caller on iPhone?

This guy keeps calling me on an unknown number harassing me and leaving me hateful voicemails. I can't block the number because he's purposely calling from an unknown number. Is there any other way I can get it so I don't receive calls from him?

Try contacting your cellphone provider. The phone can't block a number that it doesn't recognize, but some providers have the equipment to do so. You'll probably need to let them know the exact time the calls came in so they can track them in the system. And since the calls are harassing, let them know you need the information in order to file a police report, and follow up on that.

  • When you Block Caller on iPhone, does it completely block them or do they show up as Unknown? I routinely "Block Caller" telemarketers, so does using the iPhone "Block Caller" option block all calls, or will the calls still come through and just show up as "Unknown"? I've received a lot of "Unknown" phone calls lately, so that's what I was attributing it to.
  • What's the difference between an 'unkown' caller and 'no caller ID'? This unknown number keeps ringing me, and i thought if someone blocked their numbers (on iphones) it comes up as no caller ID so i'm not sure if it is still a blocked number or a number that can't come trhough. But when i answer nobody speaks and they've rang one of my friends so its not a scam phone call also they don't speak at all so if it was a company of some sort they must of spoken so its probably a prank call but i wanna know the difference to make sure.
  • SOMEONE CALLED ME ITS UNKNOWN CALLER HOW DO I CALL HIM/HER BACK? Okay so i think someone is pranking me i dunno who the *** is he.but. I just wanna call him back. And know his number to make sure he's one of my friends? But i can't call him back and i can't see his number because on my iphone 4 which i'm using doesn't come with a display name. So everyone who calls me is unknown is there a way that i could call them back or maybe get their number
  • Is there a Iphone app that lets you block your caller ID? I have the iPhone through straight talk and i wanted to download an app to block my caller ID when i call people. Since i'm with straight talk, using my carriers block service isn't available since straight talk doesn't offer that. Any suggestions?
