To activate Do Not Disturb (DND) on your Jio number, you can use any of the three methods below. Open your messaging app. Type START 0 (space between START and 0).
The SMS method is generally the fastest.
Method 1: By SMS (Fastest)
To block ALL commercial calls and SMS (Full DND):
-
Open your messaging app.
-
Type START 0 (space between START and 0).
-
Send it to 1909.
-
You will receive a confirmation message from Jio with a registration number.
(Note: “Full DND” blocks all promotional marketing, but you will still receive transactional alerts like bank OTPs, delivery updates, and balance deductions.)
Method 2: Using the MyJio App
This is best if you want to selectively block certain categories (e.g., block Real Estate calls but keep Education alerts).
-
Open the MyJio App.
-
Tap the Menu (or your profile icon) at the bottom right.
-
Go to Settings > Service Settings > Do Not Disturb.
-
Select “Fully Blocked” to stop everything, or customize your preferences.
-
Tap Submit.

Method 3: By Phone Call
-
Dial 1909 from your Jio number.
-
Follow the IVR instructions (usually pressing 1 for language, then 1 to activate DND).
Important Note
-
Time to Activate: It takes 24 hours for the preference to update and up to 7 days to be fully effective across all telemarketers.
-
Transactions: DND does not block OTPs or alerts from services you are personally subscribed to (like your bank or Swiggy/Zomato).
