How can I block my phone number display to viewers?


Hey friends I am a counselor every day I have to make so many calls, so many people call back at night when I was sleeping and that irritates me allot so What's the #code I have to dial on my phone, before making a call, so the other user can't see displayed my number. And do tell does it cost or is for free, or service required with provider? Please help!

Before you dial a number press *67. This definitely works on most landlines as well as cell phone providers. If you want to keep a check if it worked when you press *67 on landline, then you should hear three brief tones. You then continue to dial the rest of the number, on the other persons caller id. It will display blocked call. On a cell phone you will not hear the tones so try it by dialling *67 and calling yourself on your landline if you have caller id. Beware, people will come to know that you deliberately blocked your number because when you use *67 on the caller id it will say blocked call. And if you had your number private or unlisted then it would show up as a private number or restricted caller. Hope this helps you.
