Does anyone know of a way to block a specific number from calling?

Nope....some phones do it, but there isn't a Sprint code that will block it.

BUMP

So is this still the case? Any way to block a single # from calling in?

No but if your being bothered by someone with a specific number then you may need to file a complaint with your local police dept.

The Fusic allows for blocked call, but it still goes to your voicemail.

i use the screen call feature on my sanyo 8400.here is what i do. i record a custom message which is: "the number you are calling (insert your phone number)has been disconnected,please check your number and dial again.message #(insert 2 digit number). this is a message you hear when a number really is disconnected. you have 16 seconds to leave a message. there is a beep afterwards but usually after calling it a few times the caller thinks it is disconnected.i have done this and it works. this is just a way to accomplish what you are trying to do. let me know if it works.set the activation time for 16 seconds so you can hear the callers voice and activate the feature only when you need it.i put my hand over my mouth when i record the message to give it a muffled electronic computer generated sound.

how can you block it on the fusic? or is it just the ignore button?

I don't have a complete solution for you, but in the past, I've simply added those callers to my phone book as "Don't Answer" as a friendly reminder to myself or anyone else around me. After that, I learned not to give my number out to so many creepy men, but that's another story.

Its too bad sprint doesnt offer it. the MVNO "disney Mobile" that run off of sprint offers parental controls that can block any number, incoming and outgoing

Yes, under Security, choose 7 Selective Call Block. You can store up to 10 numbers for call block.

That's why I have a grand central number. It's free. It forwards to my cell, and I can block whomever I want from their online control panel.

This is EXACTLY what I do. I save the number in my phonebook as Do Not Answer and it's all done.
