How to Block Numbers in SAS Flex
If your SAS line is getting spammed with robo-dialers, prank callers or telemarketers, you can block specific numbers right from your SAS Flex portal either from your Number Settings, or right from your call log. Blocking numbers will block them from both calling and texting your SAS forwarding number.
