I use Whoscall. Works well in my opinion.

create a contact called "Unsolicted" (or whatever).. create the forwarding rule for this contact to redirect straight to voicemail... add the numbers as appropriate..

My phone just lets me block a number in the normal phone app.  Just go to your log of calls, go to the little menu thing and click Add to Auto Reject List.  Don't know if that's a standard Android feature.  I'm on vodafone.

Go put yourself on the TCP list. 
Google it and it will come up. 

I used to get 2-3 a day from scammers and business' and the like, but after registering my number on the TCP its dropped to 1 call in a blue moon. 

Makes it illegal for a company to cold call you if they are selling anything. Or summat.

Only works for callers in the UK i think.

I'm currently getting 3 or 4 calls a week from India about online income.

I used to use Telephone Preferential Service, now I either answer and wind the buggers up, or answer and not speak.

Haha I used to do this... until I was billed several quid just for answering the number.. 

complained to 3, who told me I was charged because I'd accepted the call!!! 

What?! Several seconds of call cost me somewhere near £15.. 

They wiped the charges as a one off good will thing.. but that was the last time I ever answered a call from an unknown number..

Oh.  I'm with Three actually. ..
