Can cell phone numbers be private so your number doesn't come up on another persons cell or home phone?

Question

We have verizon.

Answer 1

Yes. There is a code to punch into your phone... * something or other. Call verizon and ask.

Call *611 for Verizon toll free from your cell

Answer 2

You have to press *67 and then the number (*675105551212 for example). When calling a home phone they might have private calls blocked though so it wont matter.

Answer 3

There should be an option in your cell phone that says something like "Send own number". If you answer that no, your number will not come up on caller id when you call someone.

Answer 4

yes depending on the provider you can either block it through them, or usually the phone has a caller id feature so you can block and unblock your number from your phone..both my cell phones have that feature

Answer 5

Yes.. BUT some commercial entities are exempt and can see your number anyway. E.g. 888 and 800 numbers.

Answer 6

*67 before dialing the number you want to call

Answer 7

Yes. All you have to do is press "*67" and then dial the number...

Answer 8

*67 before the number... BUT that is a pssy move. If you're going to call someone then be a man about it

Answer 9

yes, there's an option on your cell phone that says "hidden number"

Answer 10

yeah, i think if you go to settings and under "network" you can see various options there and you can click something that tells you if you want to hide your number. you don't have to *67 or anything like that.
