Call Control

How to add and manage this robo-caller prevention mobility feature.

What is Call Control?

  • Call Control is a free optional feature

  • The feature automatically screens robo-callers and prevents them from bothering you

  • When phoning you for the first time, a caller is prompted to enter a number

  • If the caller enters it successfully, they are not prompted again (provided they are one of your 25 most recent callers) and the call goes through

  • If they fail, they hear an automatic message stating that they were prevented from reaching you

  • The feature enables you to create an Accepted list of numbers that won’t be prompted.  You should add to this list any important callers who may be using auto-dialing (such as school offices, doctors’ offices, libraries) or have difficulty following the prompts. If applicable, you should also add your home intercom’s caller ID to this list

  • Viewing your last 100 calls anytime through the call log available on your My TELUS portal
