Since Tuesday, I've been getting 4 calls per day from 727-346-0230.
I never answer and they hangup without leaving a message.
Usually twice in the morning and twice around dinner time.

I did a web search for the phone number and found.
http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-727-346-0230

Lots of complaints, here is one:
These people must have a way of tapping into
goverment and loan databases as their pitch
seems to revolve around VA Loans.
They call day, night , evening, holidays.
Never leave messages I picked up phone
once just to learn who they are . The guy
was obnoxious and high pressure seles
until I hung up the phone. I tried  telling
him not to call here but they continue.

i guess the first question would be is this to your home land line or do a cell? i ask because my wife found a program for her android powered cell phone that appears to divert calls from specific phone numbers

Contact your phone service provider.  They will help you on what to do.

I know some phone plans will allow you to block certain callers...  Check with your provider, and see if there is a way.

Beyond that, you can get your number(s) on the National 'Do Not Call' list.  Not 100%, but it keeps sales calls to a minimum, and it is free  cooldude

Just when the highway straightened out for a mile
And I was thinkin' I'd just cruise for a while
A fork in the road brought a new episode
Don't you know...

Conform, go crazy, or ride a motorcycle...

I have had AT&T service, and now Charter phone service, and they both have call blocking.  I just dial *60, and then press #,<number>,# and it is added to the blocked list.
