Landline call - message left on my Sky Mobile

AFoxyLady — Wed, 01 Nov 2023 11:52:49 GMT

I have Sky Landline, and Sky Mobile.

Recently changed handset on the landline and no longer have an aswering machine. I NEVER answer my landline, as none of my friends or contacts has this number.

In the last six weeks or so, when ever my landline rings, and I don't answer, I automatically get a blank voice message on my mobile. These are ALL marketing calls from 0800 telephone number

My questions:

1: How can I stop calls to my landline from Marketing - is it easy, or just ignore

2: How do I disconnect my mobile from my landline

Thank you ina advance

Are they all from the same number? If so, you could set up Sky Talk Shield (it's free) and block the number.

I don't think there's any automatic connection between your Sky landline number and your Sky Mobile number, so presumably the caller has both numbers (unless someone knows differently).

Or you could answer the call to establish who they are, and tell them to stop.

They seem to be from the same number an Zero Eight Hundred followed by 479 0758 was def the last one. I will look into the Sky Block, as never heard of that before. And its weird how the calls come to my mobile
