block anonymous
I have block name, contains, Anony (copied and pasted from the call record) - but it doesn't work.
What am I doing wrong?
(also tried equals full word and starts with part word)

Re: block anonymous
The anonymous block is when the anonymous bit is set in the call transaction data. It has nothing to do with the caller ID name.

Re: block anonymous
Fine --
But why doesn't this block a caller that uses a CID of Anonymous??
(exactly what the block filter says - block a name containing Anony)
The filter input automatically upper cases input - so not a matter of case.

Re: block anonymous
There is a separate option to enable anonymous call block.
"Anonymous" means there is no actual Caller ID name/number for any blocking rule to match against. The hardware/software on the receiving end generates any text that shows up in the Caller ID display (or call logs, etc.), after the call has connected.
