Block unwanted caller IDs

Sign in to the customer portal and select the intended Hosted PBX. Check its name or billing code before editing; each PBX has separate extensions and call routes.

Add an exact caller ID

  1. Find a confirmed unwanted inbound call in Call history. Copy the caller ID in the format actually received.
  2. Create a blacklist entry with that exact number and a short reason or support reference. The field is an exact caller ID; do not enter a wildcard or prefix as though it were a pattern.
  3. Save, then verify the blocked identity and a legitimate caller separately.
  4. Remove the exact entry when it is no longer needed and retest the normal route.

What this control does

Caller ID can be missing or spoofed. Blocking a displayed number can stop repeated nuisance calls using that identity, but does not authenticate a caller or replace account security and cost controls. Keep the reason useful to future administrators without storing unrelated personal information.
