I have been receiving sales/marketing calls/loan offer/real estate calls from various people on my mobile phone. I have put my number in DND state but still getting calls . I get 5 to 10 calls every day. I use DND app and complain to the telcos. But that is not useful as these marketing guys get new sim and keep calling. What is the best procedure to auto disconnect the marketing calls?
I believe they get my mobile number from banks/CC/Wallet companies.

There is no solution to this unless govt. does something.
As Workaround, create a new Contact in your phone called SPAM or whatever name. Whenever any of these folks call, disconnect, block that number (Android feature) and save it to SPAM. Do this every time for these calls just once.
When you change phones, port that SPAM contact as well. Overtime, when these blocked people realise that your number is never reachable, they will stop calling. I do exactly this

Block and save to spam?
Why? Isn’t just blocking the number enough?
It is like storing spoilt food in refrigerator till you throw it out.

You can just throw it out directly , why do you want to keep it in your refrigerator before throwing it out?

I was facing the same issues but not frequency is less as I have blocked 200+ numbers in Truecaller and also enabled the option Block top spammers.
If you are not worried about syncing your contact book on Truecaller then it’s the best way so far.
Whatever you do those calls can’t be stopped so just block it.

I answer such calls and press “Mute” button and “Speaker” too. They wait for my voice for some time and disconnect. Then I block it. smile

This what I do.
I even receive the call and tell them to hold for a moment and mute the call. Call keeps connected until they disconnect.

They trouble us so let’s waste some of their time as well.

You can block the number series..
Like one spam number was calling from 140 series like 14012345601, 14012345602 and so on.
Almost 300+ different numbers all starting with 140
We can block series by just adding (140 star) in MIUI and other similar call blockers…

I Think The Latest Version Of Phone Dialer App From Google As Well Does The Job For Blocking And Stopping Top Spammers From Calling Us. They Are Silently Blocked.

The Latest Version Which I’m Using Is 34.05.260231412
And It Really Helped Me. No Need To Buy Any Premium App.
