call intercept questions

[forums322]

Hi, I live in PA and I subscribe to call intercept. Does anyone know the total number of telephone numbers that can be placed on the blocked numbers list? I have 12 on there so far and am just wondering how much further I can go.

Also a suggestion to Verizon...it would be helpful to be able to block area codes or exchanges in addition to complete telephone numbers. For example, I wish I could simply place the toll-free area codes on a blocked numbers list, since all my annoyance calls seem to be originating from toll free numbers.

Hi forums322,

Call Intercept allows you to manage calls by screening all unidentified callers (private, unavail, anonymous) and giving them  an option to put in an overide code or recording a message to you. You must have Call Block,  where you can add up to 12 numbers. Unfortunately, this feature can't block cell phone #'s, some business #'s or pay phone #'s. If you're getting too many calls from toll free #'s you can put your name on the DO NOT CALL list at: donotcall.gov. Hope this helps.

[No personal comments, please}. Call Intercept does indeed include both a blocked numbers list and also a VIP numbers list, both of which the call intercept subscriber can manage by dialing 1-800-527-7070 (the call intercept set up number) and following the prompts. The great thing about the call intercept blocking feature is that you CAN block cell phone #'s, 800 #'s, and numbers that are not in your area code.

So no, I was not referring to Call Block (*60), I was referring to the blocked numbers list which is most definitely a part of the call intercept feature. {No personal comments, pleae}

BTW as part of your further incorectness, call block (*60) only allows you to put up to 6 numbers on the list, not 12.
