I always had my outgoing calls show "private" until I went to T-Mobile -- apparently, their phones let you restrict ALL your calls (but you can"t use the *82 feature to unblock a call) or you have to turn off the restriction and then dial the *67 for a call where you want your number blocked. So, when I had my Pearl, I just dialed *67 whenever I wanted to block my #.

Well, I just made a *67 call today to a company (not an 800 number) to place an order and they knew my number without me telling them (I asked if they had caller ID and they said yes). So, I tried calling a friend on her cell phone with my number blocked (*67 and then also with the restriction on) and both times she said my number showed up.

Does anyone else have this problem?


Thanks!
