This is by far one of the most simplest yet effective ways to stop wrong number calls from invading your cell phone. Thanks to Baby toolkit, if you follow these simple steps, you won't have to deal with Eddy looking for Freddy, or in my case Tifinity looking for Gigi (true story!).
- Create a contact on your phone called wrong number.
- Whenever a repeat wrong number offender calls, add them to the wrong number contact.
- Change the wrong number contact ringer settings to silent.
- Whenever one of your wrong number regulars calls, your phone shouldn't make a sound!
And hopefully when they keep getting your voicemail, they'll realize that Gigi has new number!

Every nail biter knows that it's a bad habit: you get bacteria from the environment into your mouth, age your hands, wear down your teeth, and generally end up feeling pretty bad about yourself and your willpower (or apparent lack thereof).
