    Phone # Blocking and more features

    Called ID is everywhere...people and merchants capture your phone number, and while most don't do anything evil with it...a few can...

    You can pay to have your phone number blocked...the cost depends on your service provider...

    But if you just want to block your number from appearing for an individual call, just dial *67 and then your number...it works from land lines and cell phones...

    It will not work when you dial 911...

    Here are some other *codes you may be interested in using...

    It [used to] cost 50 cents everytime you use *67, coz it showed up on my mom's phone bill.

    Besides, if you call me from a blocked, private, or unknown number I won't answer the phone anyway.
