▷ 917374579, Spam number or does a company belong?

Have you recently received a call from 917374579? Quiet. Around a dozen users are reporting the same as you. Multiple calls throughout the day, at night, and even on the weekend. If we refer to the information of the prefix 917, the origin of the call originates in the Community of Madrid. Is it a spam number? Does it belong to a private person? Or is it a phone scam? We see it.

Call from 917374579, who is it?

"I pick up the call and when I answer I only hear a recording that says goodbye ", "Whenever I take the call, nothing is heard on the other side", "They always call at 3:00 pm and I don't know how to block the call". These are some of the testimonies, among others, of various users who claim to have received calls from 917 37 45 79. But who is it really?

Vodafone. This is what some users say. The purpose of the call, as is often the case in these cases, is purely commercial: to offer "personalized" rates, plans and discounts. Regarding calls with recordings in English or without answer, we already saw the reason in the article on Robocalls.

Apparently, the telephone companies make use of these systems to check the time availability of potential clients, as well as the existence of the line.

How to block calls from 917 374 579 and other annoying numbers

Given that we are supposedly facing a line belonging to Vodafone, the most effective way to block their calls is to register on the company's unsubscribe page, which we can access through this link.

Just add our phone numbers and a valid email to send the termination order to Vodafone. Unfortunately this method is not immediate. For this we will have to resort to third-party applications or to the phone's own options.

There are dozens of applications to block calls. However, the ones we recommend from Tuexperto.com are two: Mr. Number for iPhone and True Caller for Android. The process in either of the two applications is the same: we will only have to add the number in question to the black list and activate the call filter.

If we have a landline phone, a non-smart mobile phone or we simply want to scale the blocking of calls to all our lines, we can resort to Lista Robinson, a platform headed by the Spanish Association of Digital Economy that is in charge of urging all companies to stop making calls for advertising purposes.

The process in this case is similar to that of Vodafone: once we have registered our data, we will add the list of phone numbers where we want to stop receiving calls. The application period will be between one to two months.
