Windows Central Question

i need to block a certain number that wont stop calling me
 
Tap+hold on the number in call history in the phone app / dialer and you will get the option.

If it is a private number:
  1. tap on the three dots . . . at the bottom
  2. tap on blocked calls
  3. then advanced
  4. block withheld numbers

However the this option will block all withheld numbers for calls and including auto-text alerts which do not have an associated number (i.e bank alerts).
 
On Lumia's you have a call+sms filter in the settings (and can do the procedure above.)

Other phones might be different, check your settings list.
