Is there a way on the iPhone to block "unknown callers" from calling?

I know how to block callers when their numbers show on the caller ID screen but I cannot figure out how to block callers who have their numbers blocked when calling me. It just shows up as "unknown caller" on my caller ID. I have checked all of the phone settings as well as the Ap store. Any ideas?

There is no iPhone feature to block unknown callers.. There are also no "Aps" that can block unknown callers from calling your phone. The only way to block "unknown callers" from being able to call you on your iPhone is to subscribe to a blocking service directly through your cell phone carrier.

However, you may potentially be able to limit the amount of "unknown callers" you receive by registering your cell phone number on the national do not call registry.
