BlackBall allows you to block unwanted callers from your BlackBerry. If you have voicemail setup, the call is automatically sent directly to voice mail. If not, then the caller will hear a busy tone when they call you if you have filtered their number. There are a few ways to block a number. You can add numbers through the address book, call log or keyed in manually. The missed call indicator is visible on each blocked call. Depending on your CPU and memory load, there may be a slight delay before a call is rejected. This is normal app behavior.

Customer Review
“Superb product. I’m surprised that the developer is literally giving this product away. It has functionality that easily commands a much higher price. I have seen other products that retail for 49.95 and yet others for 2.99. This product delivers almost all of the functionality of the 49.95 app for literally zero cost. I love the functionality of being able to block calls even when I’m already on a call. I tried Call Blocker, but it didn’t have this functionality. You might really want to get a hold of this app before the price reverts to 2.99. But even if it does, it’s worth much more!” – Scott Thomas
