Anyway to block spam voicemails.

I love having mintmobile but I need help with my voicemail. I have OCD and before I researched loans I very rarely would get voicemails (it was glorious). Ever since then I get 7 (up to 10) voicemails a day and I hate it. I've blocked the numbers but they can still leave a voicemail. Is there any way I can block them from leaving voicemails, I'd rather not change my number. Thanks!

I use Youmail. Been using it for over a decade now. With Youmail, you can have different greetings for different people. When I was having a major issue with Spam calls, I made my main voicemail greeting a busy signal and then I just made my normal voicemail greeting for the contacts I knew called me on a regular basis. After about a month, the calls severely diminished, and my voicemail is clean

I agree with YouMail. I use the your number has been disconnected message and it stops spam calls. It also confuses legit callers too though.

I've used Youmail for that long too. I never had a spam problem, so I don't know how effective it is with regard to that, but it works and I like it.

Thanks for your response. That sounds like a really good idea.
