In a method, system and apparatus for providing rules-based restriction of incoming calls, a network entity such as a call manager (202) receives a call request from a caller (210) to setup a call to the client (207). The call manager includes a database (204) including a client profile for the client (208), the client profile including identification data for the client and one or more client-defined conditions for accepting calls. The call manager also includes a processor (206) coupled to the database that is configured to: query the database to obtain the client profile for the client in response to the call request received from the caller; determine if the call request from the caller satisfies the one or more client-defined conditions; and reject the call request if the call request is determined not to satisfy the one or more client-defined conditions. |
