When the unknown number came, I dialed the "block this number" code. Then I reviewed the list of blocked numbers, and the actual number was available. | | Account Disabled with 5,857 posts. | | Join Date: Jun 2004 Location: hawaii Experience: Advanced | | interesting but how did you know what number to dial for the "btn code"? | | Moderator with 96,716 posts. | | Join Date: Oct 2002 Location: South Eastern PA, USA Experience: Advanced age & experience | | It's a standard phone company number, *xx, I'd have to look it up now, I haven't used it in a long time. It's the code that blocks the last incoming call. Once it's blocked, it was available on the blocked number list. | | Distinguished Member with 12,784 posts. | | Join Date: Dec 2004 Experience: A little of this...a little of that |

#11 | I think it's *60 - but you have to have that feature, and I don't think it works if you are dialing that from your cell phone. | | Senior Member with 173 posts. | | Join Date: Sep 2006 Experience: Intermediate |

#12 | Actually it does work from a cell phone. But most cell phones has a setting where you can block your number whenever you make a call. You wont need to use *67 to block a call if have this option set on your phone...
*67- to block a call
*69- to return last call | | Moderator with 96,716 posts. | | Join Date: Oct 2002 Location: South Eastern PA, USA Experience: Advanced age & experience |

#13 | Like I said, I'm too lazy to look it up, just know that a few years ago, it was a sneaky way to find a private number. | | Distinguished Member with 2,313 posts. | | Join Date: Apr 2004 Location: Central NJ Experience: Seasoned Professional |

#14 | *57 is for call trace. You don't get the number, but enough traces that come back for the same number will be reported to the cops. | | Junior Member with 1 posts. | | |
