Non-Published Telephone Numbers If you do not choose a blocking option, you are automatically provided Selective Blocking unless you have non-published service. If you have non-published service, you must be defaulted to Complete Blocking as required by the California Public Utilities Commission. These blocking options are free. If you want to change your initial blocking option, you may do so one time free of charge. Important Note You cannot block the transmission of your telephone number for calls to 9-1-1, 800/833/844/855/866/877/888 and 900 service, regardless of the blocking option you choose. If for some reason, you want to report an emergency without having your number displayed, you should call the agency’s seven-digit number instead of 9-1-1. If the number you are calling from is not equipped with Complete Blocking, you will need to press *67 (or 1167 from a rota ry dial phone) before you dial the agency’s number in order to block your number from being shown.
