Blocked number?!

    I've been getting phone calls from a blocked number; not answering them is my policy! Anyway, they've left very strange messages in my voicemail - is there anyway of finding out what number is at the end of the blocked number? I'm on O2 if it makes any difference.
    Thanks in advance!

    No there isn't. Report it to your network provider. Report it to the Gardai. Let them put a trace on your phone.

    Unless the calls are very threatening though I wouldn't hold out much hope as the Gardai are far too busy and your network will not act without Gardai / court order.

    Other options are to change your number really.

    no sorry there's no way to find out , unless there saying they want to kill you , then go to the police ,

    just ignore them and don't answer , sooner or later they'll give up

    sometimes i get this phone call were you can only here surrounding noise like the wind or the t.v in the backround,
    what i do is answer the phone and leave it , let them waste there credit

    get handy blacklist on your phone and divert all the blocked phone calls onto the guarda station. He he.

    It doesn't solve the voicemail issue really - short of disabling voicemail ..

    I need the voicemail - might just answer it next time and let them waste their credit!

    Thanks everyone for your replies.

    Get this

    Of course you'll need to move you and the caller to America first unfortunately :(
