In partnership with trueCall, free call blockers are now available at:
www.friendsagainstscams.org.uk/callblocker
The National Trading Standards (NTS) Scams Team has secured funding to provide free* call blocking units to help protect people in receipt of scam and nuisance phone calls on their landline phone. *There is no charge associated with obtaining a call blocker. However, on the day you set-up the unit and every Sunday after, the unit will perform a link through the phone line to trueCall’s head office (020 8 area code in London). This may incur a cost charged at standard call rates, if the user’s call tariff does not include free evening and weekend calls. [See further conditions by following the Friends Against Scams link above.]
Please note that there is a limited supply of call blocker units available. You can apply on behalf of someone else with their consent, or you can apply for yourself.
