I switched to Fido a couple months ago and I get a ton of telemarketing calls, at least 10 per day! I've had this number for more than 8 years and I never had this problem until I stwiched yo Fido. My phone has been on the DNCL for years. Is Fido selling phone numbers !!? This is ridiculous

This is good but it won't catch them all.  The spam since joining on Black Friday has been ridiculous.  I'm cancelling Fido because no Call Control like Telus and Koodo offers for free.  It's a shame because the reception, service, and ease coming to Fido has been excellent. 

Hi @Mony20 , I strongly dislike spam calls. I have a setting in my calls app that I turned on ages ago and it detects most spam or telemarketing calls. I have a Samsung device so it may be different on your device if you don't have Samsung. Open telephone app and in the top right, the 3 bars hamburger you will find the settings for blocking or spam calls.

 This should cut down the calls immensely. Hope that helps
