▷ 987949936, Spam number or does it belong to a company?

Have you received a call from 987949936 in the last days? You are not the only one. Since the beginning of last week, many users have been reporting on social networks and specialized forums the receipt of calls from a number similar or equal to the one we just mentioned. Taking into account the origin of the prefix 987, the origin of the call takes us to the province of León. Is it a spam number or does it just belong to an individual? We see it.

Call from 987949936, who is it?

"They called me twice around 10:30 at night", "It is not normal for them to call at this time", "I pick up the call and they ask if the Internet works well". These and many other arguments are several of the most recurrent complaints that we can find on Twitter and specialized web pages. Who is behind this phone?

The truth is that it is still unknown. While some users claim that it is Jazztel, many others claim to be from Yoigo and MásMóvil. We can deduce, therefore, that it corresponds to a Call Center of several telephone companies. The purpose of the call, in any case, is to offer different Internet and mobile plans.

How to block calls from 987 94 99 36 and other spam numbers

The most effective and immediate method to block calls from a phone number is to use applications to block calls, although there are some layers of customization that already have this function as standard, such as MIUI, EMUI and One Samsung UI.

If our phone lacks this function, we can always turn to Mr. Number if we have an iPhone or True Caller if we have an Android phone. The process to follow once we have installed the application on the phone is really simple: just add the number 987 94 99 36 to the black list and then activate the call filter. The application will automatically block all calls that come from the number we have just registered.

But how can we proceed if we have received the call on a non-smart mobile phone or a landline phone? In this case, we can use the Robinson List, a web platform managed by the AEED (Spanish Association of Digital Economy) that is responsible for forcing all companies with the legislation in hand to suspend calls for advertising purposes.

Once we have registered all our data on the platform, we will add the list of phone number where we want to stop receiving calls. Within three weeks to two months we will stop receiving advertising calls.
