Two previous devices are based on blocking pre-programmed numbers but this latest innovation works in reverse – only allowing calls through that have been previously agreed.
The simple to use device – available only through the channel via Nimans – can be remotely programmed and has been developed by CPR Global (The Call Prevention Registry) which is the UK’s leading anti-nuisance call service provider.
In a further boost the cold calling industry now has a further unlikely ‘enemy’ in Griff from the hit TV show The Call Centre who has joined CPR in the fight against nuisance calls. Griff is spearheading an ‘enough is enough’ campaign and has even started his own call blocker business.
Nimans’ Purchasing Director, Andy Winfield says there’s nothing quite like the Call Blocker range on the market. “The CPR Call Blocker is an easy to set-up all-in-one everyday product which helps retain privacy in the home or office, providing Caller ID is active. This latest innovation, the Call Blocker Protect+ blocks all calls that are not trusted numbers added to an ‘allowed list’. The Protect+ also enables numbers to be added or removed remotely from the designated number list.”
Andy added: “Call blocking technology is becoming big business and offers resellers a great way to add to their existing revenue streams. 85% of people receive nuisance calls. It’s an area of the market too big for resellers to ignore - which now has the support of Griff, a cult TV figure made famous by his cold calling techniques.”
