[comp.dcom.telecom] Caller ID / Per Line Blocking

Rob Boudrie <rboudrie@encore.com> (06/07/91)

A recent posting mentins that Florida Caller ID will make per call
blocking (by dialing a prefix) available to anyone free of charge, but
that only privliged persons and agencies can get "per line" blocking.

So, I was wondering :

(a) Are there any phones available which may be programmed to automatically
    insert a user defined prefix befure the dialed number?

(b) What about an in line gadget that you put in the line to do this for
    all of your phones?

[Moderatpr's Note: I'd think any speed dial phone could be programmed
to include *67 (or whatever) in front of the phone number in that
position in the directory.  PAT]
