Bloctel, how does it work?

Bloctel has been a service offered by the French government since June 2016. In theory, this public service is used to prevent unsolicited commercial canvassing.



To benefit from this service, online registration is required. It allows you to signal that you do not want to receive direct sales calls to a landline number or a mobile phone number. Telephone canvassing companies have access to these numbers and are required to delete them from their databases.


Registration on Bloctel is free and is valid for three years. A person who registered in September 2016, for example, must renew their registration in September 2021. The service also allows you to make a complaint when you receive an unwanted prospecting call.

Note: Bloctel provides for several exceptions. Companies with which a contract is made - such as an insurance company or a mobile phone provider - can still contact their customers and subscribers to propose new offers. Polling institutes or non-profit associations are not affected by Bloctel either.
