Call Block Instructions

Have you ever had an annoying caller who repeatedly disturbed you? Or, are there certain times when you don't wish to speak with someone in particular? Call Block helps you control your phone and rids you of these inconveniences. This service prevents the last person who called you from reaching you again (from the same calling number). It also rejects phone numbers you put on your Call Block list. In either case, the caller is re-routed to a recorded message and your phone does not ring. You always begin by accessing your Call Block service. You may have up to six phone numbers on your Call Block list. You need not fill the list in order to use the service. You will also receive recorded instructions when using Call Block; however, you may dial during these instructions for faster service.

Tips And Techniques

	If a number is also on one of your other lists (Call Selector or Preferred Call Forwarding), Call Block will override the others.
	When you put a phone number on your Call Block list, callers from that number will be told that the number they have called has activated their Call Block service, and calls from their number will not be received by the called party.
	If you hear a recorded announcement that the number cannot be put on your list, it will be for one of these reasons: You tried to enter an invalid or non-working phone number. You tried to enter a number that's outside the TouchStarŽ service area.
	The Call Block list must contain the main telephone number if the caller being blocked subscribes to RingMasterŽ service.
