block your own phone number?

Thanks for getting back to me. I have reached out to one of my phone techs and advised there shouldn't be an issue. Have you attempted to add your number to the list? Did you get an error message? If you get an error message please send me a PM with your first/last name and the voice security pin and I can try something on the backend system. To find your voice pin please use the following link: https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/view-change-voice-security-pin.

  • Your Xfinity Voice/home telephone number

So my point is, this is a problem. Why can't you block your own number? It isn't as if you're calling your own number from your own number. This doesn't make much sense.

I'm sorry. I just tried blocking my own number and it works! I thought it didn't when I tried it earlier. So thank you very much for your guidance, and I think we can consider this query closed.

Hey, clarkr. Thank you for posting that update. I'm glad to hear that it finally registered your number. That should certainly stop your spoofed number from dialing you. If you happen to come across any issues with your number being blocked, please don't hesitate you reach back out to us. It was a pleasure to work work with you and appreciate you being apart of the Comcast family. I hope you have a great week ahead of you!
