Identifying Calls
In today’s fast-paced world, we all need a chance to take control of our schedules. The Arvig Calling Features that enable you to identify callers will help you do just that!
Caller ID: Name & Number With Caller ID, the name and/or telephone number of the caller is displayed on a special display unit attached to your telephone or on a specially equipped display telephone. If the caller has blocked the delivery of the call, or if Caller ID is not available in the caller’s telephone network, the display screen shows “Private” or “Anonymous.” Caller ID customers also receive Anonymous Call Rejection (see Blocking Calls section).
Enhanced Caller ID Allows you to see who’s calling when you are on the telephone. When you hear your Call Waiting “beep,” the name and/or telephone number of the calling party will appear on your display unit.
Call Tracing To initiate a trace on the last call you have received, simply press *57 after receiving the call. The originating telephone number, time and date of the call is recorded on a special printer at Arvig and can be forwarded to a law enforcement agency at your request. When you activate the trace, a digital voice recording will inform you if the trace was successful. There is a charge for each successful trace.
Second Number Service Allows you to have up to two telephone numbers with unique ring patterns. This provides many of the advantages of an additional line but at a fraction of the cost.
Priority Call A distinctive ring or distinctive Call Waiting tone will alert you of a call from your own “Priority Call List” of up to 31 phone numbers. You’ll hear a short-long-short ringing pattern or distinctive Call Waiting tones on calls originating from those numbers. All other calls will ring with a standard ring or Call Waiting tone. Start code is *61. Stop code is *61. 11
Selective Call Acceptance You can choose to receive only calls from specific parties by entering their telephone numbers into a “selection list” of up to 31 phone numbers. Other calls will receive a recorded announcement stating you are not accepting calls at this time. To Use Selective Call Acceptance • Lift the handset and listen for the dial tone. • Press *64 for voice instructions which will guide you through the steps of how to: • Turn the feature on or off. • Make changes to your feature list. • To add the last caller to your acceptance list, press #01#.
Selective Call Rejection You can choose not to receive calls from specific parties by entering their telephone number into a “Screening List” of up to 31 phone numbers. Calls originating from those numbers will be routed to a recorded announcement stating you are not accepting calls at this time. You will receive all other calls as usual. To Use Selective Call Rejection • Lift the handset and listen for the dial tone. • Press *60 for voice instructions which will guide you through the steps of how to: • Turn the feature on or off. • Make changes to your feature list. • After receiving an annoying call, you may wish to prevent that person from calling you in the future. To add the last caller to your rejection list, press #01#.

Line Blocking Prevents your number from being displayed to Caller ID customers on all calls made from your telephone. Line Blocking is available upon request at no charge to residential customers.
