Mobile subscribers can register their telephone number with the National Customer Preference Register by dialing a toll free number 1909 and by sending an SMS to 1909. You can then set your preference either via an IVR or with the help of a customer care executive. For registering and setting up the preference via SMS, the SMS message has to be sent in the following format to the number 1909.SMS “START 0” to 1909 for fully blocked option i.e. blocking all the calls and messages

SMS “START <option>” to 1909 for partial blocking.
