obscene phone calls

What can public mobile do about repeated obscene/harassing phone calls from the same number ?

Confront the caller. If you know the caller personally then confront the caller personally. If you feel threatened then you can involve friends, you can involve police, you can ask them to confront the caller for you.

 

Or login Self-Serve to change your phone number (once every 30 days if you like, costs nothing except the hassle of informing all your contacts with your new number).

Indeed... use the *67 code to redirect blocked and manually declined calls to something other than your voicemail, without affecting other calls. Here's some more examples how: https://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/Using-Your-Service/Spam-voicemails/m-p/507120/highlig...

 

My latest fave is forwarding nuisance calls to 2263361437. 😎

You could also temporarily disable your voicemail until the person realizes they can no longer harass you by leaving you messages.

 

To "disable" voicemail, dial *004*8080000000#

 

To reset it back to defaults, dial ##004#

You really only have a couple of options then.

 

You could either report it to the local policing authorities if they are calling from actual phone number which is displaying on your phone, or you can change your number with public mobile.

Not a lot - however if it is from the same number, block it.
