4. There are a variety of options reviewed in this article

I'd recommend this one since you're awaiting registration as part of the "do not call" list.

On both Android and iOS, you can set each operating system’s Do Not Disturb mode to allow phone calls from only those people and businesses in your contacts list. This is a pretty drastic, sledgehammer solution to the problem of robocalls, and you’re almost certainly going to miss calls that you would’ve liked to have answered. But those calls will go through to voicemail, and then you can add that number to your contacts for the future. I’d still only recommend this option if you’re completely fed up, though, and only if you’re very good and meticulous about keeping contacts up to date.

Good luck, 49jim. Sounds like a pain in the backside but hopefully it gets better soon.
