Calling Services: Anonymous Call Rejection

Don't waste time taking calls you don't want.

Description

Anonymous Call Rejection (ACR) allows you to block incoming calls from people who use *67 to block their phone number as well as calls made from a private line. When Anonymous Call Rejection is activated, your phone will not ring when an incoming "private" or "anonymous" call is received. Instead, the caller will hear an announcement advising them that the called party is not accepting calls marked "private" or "anonymous."

Anonymous Call Rejection is included at no cost for monthly subscribers to Caller ID or Call Return. This service may also be ordered separately.

Example

You repeatedly get calls from sales representatives with whom you don't care to do business. Their calls show on your Caller ID as PRIVATE or ANONYMOUS. By activating Anonymous Call Rejection, you can avoid their phone calls and avoid wasting your precious time on a call you don't wish to take.



To activate Anonymous Call Rejection

Simply press *77 to activate and *87 to deactivate.
