ENHANCED CUSTOM CALLING SERVICES

PRIORITY CALL (CONTINUED)

To turn off Priority Call:

•

Pick up the phone and listen for dial tone.

•

Press *61 (on a Rotary Phone dial 1161) and follow the instructions.

*Some telephone sets are capable of providing a standard ring.

*The distinctive ringing for both Teen Service and Priority Call is not distinguishable.

ANONYMOUS CALLER REJECTION

Anonymous Caller Rejection allows you to reject calls from callers who have blocked their number/name, either through the use of per line blocking or per call blocking. You do not have to subscribe to Calling Number Delivery to have ACR nor is a display unit necessary.

To activate Anonymous Caller Rejection:

•

Pick up the phone and dial *77. (On a Rotary Phone dial 1177.)

•

Listen for the tone burst for confirmation.

•

Your telephone will not ring if the person calling you has “blocked” their number through per line blocking or per call blocking.

To turn off Anonymous Caller Rejection:

•

Pick up the phone and dial *87. (On a Rotary Phone dial 1187.)

•

You will now be able to receive all calls.

It is important to remember that both per-call and per-line blocking will not block your billing telephone number to Emergency 9-1-1, nor will it currently prevent your number from being transmitted on 700, 800, or 900 calls. Also, calls from a pay phone cannot be blocked.

CALL BLOCK

Call Block rejects calls from up to eight specific numbers. The last number that called you (a private entry) can be put on your list to prevent that number from reaching you again. Calls from numbers on your list hear a recorded message saying you are not accepting calls. Your phone doesn’t even ring. Some customer premises equipment may not be able to produce a distinctive signal, ring or tone. The Cooperative accepts no liability for customer premises equipment that is not compatible with some of these services.
