Introduction
Selective Call Rejection allows you to reject calls that meet your pre-defined criteria. These callers will be given an announcement that you cannot be reached. The criteria for each Selective Call Rejection entry can be a list of up to 12 phone numbers or digit patterns, a specified time schedule, and a specified holiday schedule.
For example, if you are receiving repeated calls from a specific phone number that you do not wish to answer, add the number to the Selective Call Rejection list.
