Why Need to Block a Phone Number?

As I said, sometimes you frequently receive a call from a particular unknown number. In my case, one day I had dialed a wrong number. Soon after, the person called me from the same number. I attended it and replied — sorry the number was dialed by me mistakenly (and I disconnected the call).  But I don’t know what was wrong with that particular guy; he was calling me again and again.

So here I decided, if this person will call me again, I won’t pick this number.

But, this was not a right solution to fix this issue.

So I have searched this problem on the internet and find out a very easy solution.
