How do I get a specific caller number to go straight to voice mail without letting the caller know they are being blocked?

I have a sister with memory problems who calls constantly. She does not remember calls she made 15 minutes ago. I know I can block her number and let calls go to voice mail but her hearing her number is being blocked will just make things worse.

@user_5a11f0 Can you clarify if you are trying to send the caller to voicemail on a mobile phone or our Xfinity home phone services?

@user_5a11f0 Thank you for clarifying that, you can block the number using these directions. However, there isn't a way to make it ring like it's just ringing through to voicemail, so they may know that you did block their number. I hope you find this helpful.
