How can I prevent unlawful advertising calls?
You can make sure you don’t receive any unlawful advertising calls with the "Call Filter" function in the swype app.
The "Call Filter" function allows you to activate or deactivate a central blacklist, directly in the swype mobile app. Once activated, the call filter automatically blocks incoming calls from numbers included on a central blacklist.
This central blacklist is continuously updated by Sunrise UPC and maintained based on various criteria. Criteria include: disregard of a starred entry in the public telephone book, calls at unwelcome times, aggressive advertising calls combined with dubious sales practices, callers who do not observe transparency requirements (such as providing their phone number) etc.
This means that no individual personal phone numbers can be blocked via the "Call Filter".
You can find more information about the Sunrise UPC central blacklist on this website under «Popular topics» > «Unwelcome advertising».
