Decide if you want the block to be permanent or if you want the ability to have your number show to some people all the time. There are codes that you can enter that will make your number not visible on Caller ID as long as you remember to enter it before you make the call. If you think you won't remember, then perhaps the permanent solution is a better choice for you. You can always show your phone number for a particular call by dialing *82.

Create a preset list of contact. Numbers not included in the list will be blocked. On the other hand, phone systems with auto receptionist will have the callers leave their name then displays the name and number of the caller in your phone or our exclusive Call Controller pop-up tool on your computer. From here you can have the option to either accept or reject the call.

If you have the cell phone number call your cell phone provider and tell them the number you need to have blocked. If its an unknown number, there is no real way to block it.

Usually you can type in *67 and then type the number you're calling, but if that doesn't work I'm not sure.

In the US and Canada, dial *67 before a number to block one's caller ID. This number varies for other countries. One can also request from their phone company for a caller ID to be blocked.

How tele-marketing companies get your home or mobile numbers. Most of time their caller ID is displayed as No number or Unknown. Can we block such calls?

Unless you're 'ex-directory' or 'unlisted' - they can get your number from the people who compile your phone book ! If the caller ID shows 'No number' or 'unknown' - it simply means the caller is using a phone connected through a switchboard (rather than a direct line).
