Make quiet hours block incoming calls
Please, add an option for the Quiet hours to block all phone calls in Teams. Why are there Quiet hours, if it still rings?
Or enable the Busy Status to be time-bound, which should do the same job.

How the **** is this still not available? How hard could it be to just add an option to block incoming calls during quiet hours?

Is there an update to when this will happen, we are moving to teams calls and we too cannot set quiet hours - you chould be able to configure times for different days in the teams settings to ensure your teams doesnt ring. Standard feature and something that should really be easy to do? Please can this be done asap

I'm a Teacher in SEND - some of my students call at all hours of the day and at weekends. They can't understand why they can't do this. Please turn off calls in quiet hours - it makes no sense - surely quiet hours are for quiet hours!

October 30 2020 and still ringing my phone when on quiet hours. Please make this an option to silence calls during quiet hours. My work number also receives the main reception line. This means I receive calls outside of my working hours as people call the main office number. Random person wants to call the office at 11pm whether they are on another timezone, think our small office is open 24/7, or want to leave a message and I have my personal phone ringing. Please help.

Please, hurry up delivering this feature which is a standard now. By the way https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public/suggestions/33214585-option-to-disable-voice-calls-on-mobile-app is not available on iOS, please complete the work.

It is October and this is still not fixed. Calls from a queue are still ringing on devices with quiet hours set.

Agree. I need to block a persistent caller from work who calls at all hours. Usually she's entered her Office 365 password into a fishing site or whatever.

Quiet mode is not very quiet if you still get phone calls, please help to fix this Microsoft! As others have mentioned, this is making it difficult to not have calls coming in during non-business hours and it's very annoying.

As long as there's an option to maintain exceptions to the rule. I.e. out of hours emergency lines.

This needs to be across all devices. I get calls to my teams app all the time in the evening. Drives me mad. Quiet hours should send all calls to voicemail (on all devices)

This needs to be easy to turn on and off - Not hidden under several menus after scrolling all the way down the screen.
There should also be some options available as to where to direct the call.
E.g. To VM, a colleague, AA/CQ Group etc.

Be sure to include call group numbers as well as direct numbers. Currently the only way to silence group numbers is to log out.

Linking to OOH in calendar would also be a bonus.
