CTPS registered but constantly getting marketing calls

[anonymous-user]

Looking for advice here.

My business is CTPS registered ( Corporate Telephone Preference Service ) however I'm getting around 10-20+ marketing/scam calls daily from Indian call centres. Most of them are aggressive, rude and at this point pretty much harassing me and my staff.

My business relies on customers calling and making orders, so you can imagine how annoying it can get, especially when we're busy.

Changing the number is not a choice.

Does anyone have any ideas or solutions?

There is literally nothing you can do about these callers.

Best bet I'd suggest would be to setup a call queue on your phone system where you can transfer them - something that plays really annoying music and never gets answered.

I used to have one at my old place that just played Meja's "All 'bout the money" at them.

Can you block each number after taking it or can your provider block international callers?

Do you have an internal switchboard? If so you could transfer tell them you're transferring them, then send to an unused number, that way they'll sit with the ringing tone on their end. If nothing else it will waste their time and cost them money
