0843 Nuisance calls

[Paul-Edinburgh]

I’ve seen previous posts on getting nuisance calls from 0843 numbers, but nothing recent

is there anyway I can simply block all calls from 0843 numbers ?    I’ve tried call blocking apps, but they only work after the call and relies on people reporting the number.   My experience is the same number doesn’t try and ring again anyway

im getting up to 10 a day some days and it is so annoying- just want to block them
