Calling Features
Customer Originated Trace
How To Use:
1.
When you get a nuisance call, press and
quickly release the “switch hook.” Listen
for a special dial tone.
2.
If you’ve already hung up, just lift the hand-
set again and listen for a normal dial tone.
3.
Press *57.
(On a rotary phone, dial 1157.)
4.
Listen for a confirmation tone or announce-
ment that the last call has been traced.
5.
Hang up.
6.
The number you traced will be recorded
at the phone company. If you decide to
follow up on the matter, we’ll provide that
number to the local authorities.
Note:
•
The “switch hook” is the button the hand-
set pushes down when you hang up the
phone. Some telephones have a Link or
Flash key you can press instead.
•
Customer Originated Trace must be used
immediately after you hang up on the call
you want traced. If you get another call, or
hear a Call Waiting tone first, you will trace
the wrong call.
•
In some areas, after you
dial *57
, you’ll
hear an announcement that the call can be
traced. Just follow the voice instructions
to dial an additional code, and the call will
be traced.
