How To Block Your Number From Caller Id When You Make Phone Calls

Blocking your number is easy. Just follow these steps: Go to your settings and select "privacy." Scroll down to the bottom and tap "call blocking." You'll see a list of all the numbers you've blocked so far. To add a new one, tap "add" and type in the number you want to block (or just scroll down until you find it). Once you've added all the numbers you want to block, press "save."

There is nothing worse than getting a call from an unknown number and having to deal with a salesperson trying to sell you something or maybe even just an automated message trying to get you to answer the phone.

In this article, we'll give you some tips on how to block your number so that you never have to listen to those annoying calls again.

Should you find yourself in a situation where you need to block your phone number, there are a few options to consider. You can use an app like Signal or WhatsApp, which will allow you to create a temporary number that is only active for the length of the conversation. If you're only looking for a temporary solution, this is likely a good choice—though it does require downloading and installing an app on your phone.

How to block your number on iPhone

To block your number, please follow these instructions:

1. Go to the website of your phone service provider.

2. Login with your username and password.

3. Navigate to 'Settings,' then 'Call Blocking & Identification.'

4. Click on 'Add New' and enter the number you want to block.

Use *67 code

If you're looking for something more permanent, however, blocking your number is generally easier than unblocking it. In most cases, all you have to do is dial *67 before entering any number that should be blocked—for example, if your mobile carrier allows calls from blocked numbers but blocks texts from them (which many do), dialing *67 before texting someone would work as well.

FAQs

  1. What is the best way to block your number?

The best way to block your number is with a free app or service. There are several options available, and they all have their own pros and cons. Some of them will allow you to make calls, while others only allow you to send texts. Others can be used on multiple devices, while others can only be used on one device at a time. There are also some that are free but require you to purchase credits in order to use them.

  1. Can other people see my blocked number?

No! Blocking your number only affects outgoing calls and texts. The one on the other end won't be able to see who you are—they'll just get a normal call from an unknown caller.

  1. When will my blocked number be active?

Your blocked number will go into effect immediately after you've selected it and clicked "Save Changes." You'll see a message letting you know that your number has been blocked for the time period that you selected.
