funks0ul Posted December 2 Report Share Posted December 2 ever since i got this new phone, which isn't really new anymore, cause june was how many months ago, but I keep getting these wrong # calls for this chic, and I don't know if she had the # before I had it, or if she's giving it out.

funks0ul Posted December 2 Report Share Posted December 2 my sister, she lives in miami, she has this thing called privacy director.Privacy Director service works in conjunction with Caller ID Deluxe. When a person calls with a blocked or unknown number that won't show up on Caller ID, Privacy Director service answers the call and gives the callers the option of identifying themselves. If they refuse to identify who they are, the phone doesn't ring at the BellSouth customer's home and they are not interrupted. If the callers identify themselves, the phone rings and Privacy Director tells the customer who is calling. The customer then has the option of answering the call, ignoring the call, or sending phone solicitors a sales reject message. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetie029 Posted December 2 Report Share Posted December 2 Private calls I always answer...cause it's usually someone who I know...But if the # is blocked I let the machine/voicemail get it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funks0ul Posted December 2 Report Share Posted December 2 Originally posted by nybeauty that sucks! they should have these features for cell phones just like they do on reg phones yeah tell me about it.. but seeing as how a lot of people are getting rid of their landlines and only using their cellphones, I think they'll start coming up with better features/services/plans, instead of making sure every phone in equipped with a camera.
