How to block unwanted callers

In this article, you will learn how to block numbers in Workiz Phone.

Whether you want to prevent calls from spammers, telemarketers, or other unwanted individuals, you can easily block a number using Workiz.

This article will focus on blocking specific phone numbers. If you are experiencing a high volume of spam calls, we recommend converting your basic call flow into a voice menu call flow (i.e., press 1 for..., press 2 for..., etc.).
