Blocking Unknown Callers from calling OR leaving voicemail

I have never accepted any phone calls from people who have their Caller ID off.  The ones who block Caller ID from showing those they call, any names or phone number of the caller.   However, they can still leave voicemail.  I just want to read or listen to voice mail from those I know.  Is there a way to block unknown callers from leaving voicemail??   I already tried Robokiller, Spam Shield and Call Control.   Any help??

    Don't know why TMobile doesn't make the above **67*1+ac+number# thing more visible so more people can reject blocked calls from going to voicemail.

     

    Also goto call blocking settings and turn on block unknown numbers. But remember this setting doesn't block non contact numbers which you need to manually block.

    Hope this helps you all out

    How do you turn off that feature? 

     Definitely need to know how to turn off feature?! Number Barn doesn't have my information. Almost like the **67* is a back door entrance into the feature. States that barndoor is in control but no reference on barndoor website. Phone is finicky now i.e. dropped calls, sent messages duplicated and  tripled, missed calls, unavailable almost like airplane mode is turned on when it's verified not to be. T-Mobile is no help for this issue. Regret dialing the number now. Had a female that was harassing family, blocked her number and she was able to leave VM. Was at wits end and frustrated, now its even more frustrating lol. Send help please 

    If anyone comes across this it seems that ##67# is the way to undo this

    After I did that I didn’t get a message about NumberBarn when dialing my voice mail.

    I found it to be *#67#  although iPhone codes are slightly different.

    Hi all Sam Presley back.

     

    I'm so sorry I've been gone I just recently got my T-Mobile service back so now I can post the stuff again here to help you guys out. 

     

    I'm in the USA on T-Mobile and I now use **67*1555555555# I'm my dialer to keep 3rd party blockers and built in device blacklist numbers from leaving me any voicemails.. yes I use this on my Android phone and it works perfectly 

    Above code works on iPhone as well…

    If you decide to set back to T-Mobile voice mail or reset call forwarding to default then in phone dialer type ##004# and all call forwarding will be set to T-Mobile voicemail. You might not see the TMobile VM number in busy Cfwb, And the two slots below it. That I don't know why because it happens here as well but trust me it'll send blocked calls to T-Mobile voicemail..

    The +15555555555 number above is totally never used and when a blocked number calls you they'll hear 3-4 rings then will hang up and not let blocked number ever leave any voicemails…
