Exceptional case
To summarize, we would like to talk about one exception that is associated with banking institutions and collectors. Subscribers often turn to the support service with questions about what they are called by unknown persons and demanding to return the debt. Although they did not occupy anything and in general are other citizens. In this case, the only right decision will be to contact the state law enforcement agencies (police) with a statement that illegal actions are being taken against you. The fact is that collectors and financial organizations always change numbers, and the Black List service will not help you get rid of them.
Now you have all the necessary information about blocking subscribers. We reviewed all issues, including the exception, provided useful instructions. Feel free to use your new knowledge.
