Create a short code to block and report unwanted phone calls

Additional Information

Despite registering with TPS many people are still receiving a host of unwanted phone calls.

We call upon the government to make phone companies implement a shortcode number that if dialed immediately after an unwanted call will:

1) Block the caller's number from making future calls to the receiver's number

2) Report the caller's number as making unwanted calls to TPS subscribers. If there are sufficient complaints against a specific number then that number is blocked from making calls. If an overseas caller then that number is blocked from making calls to the UK.
