Blocked numbers leaving voicemail messages

I’ve blocked a number from calling me on my phone, but as it’s an automated message spam caller, when the voicemail kicks in, the spam calling system thinks it’s been answered so their message starts, so every time they call (most days per week, if not more) I get a voicemail off them. Is there a way to block a number from leaving a voicemail, or better, to block them from calling through the network?

Hi @cymruaj 

 

Unfortunately while a number is blocked, we cannot block it from leaving voicemails, sorry about this.

 

Our only recommendation is to consider turning voicemail off and reporting the number.
