Disaster Preparedness

The following information was taken from www.Ready.gov , the Emergency Management Agency & the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Disaster preparedness is no longer the sole concern of earthquake prone Californians and those who live in the part of the country known as “Tornado Alley.” For Americans, preparedness must now account for man-made disasters as well as natural ones. Knowing what to do during an emergency is an important part of being prepared and may make all the difference when seconds count. At the web site of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, www.Ready.gov , there is information on how to be prepared for and what to do in case of Natural Disasters (earthquake, tornado, flood, fire, hurricane, thunderstorms, winter storms, etc.), Biological Threats, Chemical Threats, Explosions, and more. This web site provides information on planning, preparing your own disaster kit and staying informed.

Telemarketer Call Screening

number displayed on their telephone display screen. Instead, a “P” or “private” will be displayed.

The Telemarketer Call Screening (TCS) feature attempts to eliminate telemarketer calls to a subscriber by screening suspected telemarketer calls before ringing the subscriber. The TCS service intercepts calls that are suspected to be telemarketer calls. The service plays an announcement stating that the party they have dialed does not accept calls from telemarketers, and that the party wishes for his/her name to be added to the telemarketers “Do Not Call” list. Other callers are asked to remain on the line, or dial ‘1’ to ring through. Telemarketers frequently restrict their number from going out to the network, so their incoming call could “show up” to the called party as “blocked,” “anonymous,” “private,” or “unknown.” It is these type calls that trigger the TCS announcement. Calls where the number is sent to the network would ring the called party’s line like normal.

Notes: • This feature is available on all lines at no charge. • You must dial *67 before each call you place. Otherwise, your phone number will be released to the person receiving your call. • To block your number automatically on every call, subscribe to Call Suppression.

Call Waiting

If somebody else is trying to reach you when you are using your line, you will hear a short tone. You can hold your first call while you answer the second.

1.

A tone lets you know if a second call is waiting. The party calling you will hear the usual ringing. If you want to end the first call, hang up. Your phone will ring and the second party will be on the line. If you want to hold the first party while answer- ing the second, briefly depress and release the switchhook. With this method you can switch between parties at will. Each conversation is private between you and the other party.
