During the last days of October, there have been precisely few users who have reported on the different social networks the receipt of several calls through the number 961169743. Apparently the number in question makes calls during the night at odd hours and even on weekends. If we attend to the prefix 961 that precedes the telephone, the origin of the call takes us to the Valencian Community. Is it an individual, or does it belong to a company? We see it below.

Call from 961169743, who is it?

"He called me at 10:30 pm tonight and I don't know who he is", "I have several missed calls from this number and I don't know how to block it" and "After picking up the call no one answers" are several of the more testimonies recurring calls in relation to 961 169 743. Who is hiding behind?

Jazztel, or at least so several users indicate. The operator's official channels have not yet ruled on the matter, so we cannot confirm that it is the company. The objective of the call, in any case, is to offer portability through its Internet rates with fiber and mobile.

How to block calls from 961169743 and other spam numbers

To block calls from any phone number we can use two different methods, which depend on whether we have a landline or basic mobile phone or a smartphone.

If we have a mobile device with Android or iOS, the process is as simple as installing an application that helps us to block calls. There are dozens of applications in the different stores, although the ones we recommend from Tuexpertomovil are Mr. Number for iOS and True Caller for Android.

Some customization layers have options that allow us to block calls without installing third-party apps.

Blocking calls from either of the two applications is as simple as adding the number 961 16 97 43 to the application's black list and activating the call filter. It will be then when the system blocks all reception of any call from the number mentioned above.

How can we proceed if we have a landline or mobile phone without an intelligent operating system? In this case, the only measure we can carry out is based on registering on the Lista Robinson website, a non-profit platform managed by the Spanish Association of Digital Economy that obliges all companies operating in Spain to suspend performance calls for commercial purposes.

After having registered our data on the platform, we will only have to add all the telephone numbers of our property where we want to stop receiving calls for advertising purposes. We should stop receiving calls of this type in about two months.
