Help and Support

Call Rejection allows you to create a list of phone numbers from which you do not wish to receive calls. Calls from phone numbers on your list are sent to an announcement that informs the caller that you are not receiving calls at this time. The amount of numbers each list can have varies. Contact TDS for details.

What Call Rejection Does for You:

• Allows you to block calls from people with whom you do not wish to speak.
• Enhances security and privacy.

To Use Call Rejection:

1. Dial *60.
2. Listen to the voice instructions which will guide you through the steps of how to turn Call Rejection on or off.
3. Press “3” to turn Call Rejection on.
4. When prompted, press # to add number(s) to your list.
5. Add number(s) to your list.
6. Press # to confirm each number on your list.
7. Hang up.
8. After receiving any annoying call, you may wish to prevent that person from calling you in the future.

Call Rejection’s voice instructions will explain how to add the number of the last caller to your list (even if you do not know the party’s number):

• Dial *60 and listen for instructions.
• Dial #01#.
• Hang up, then lift the receiver and listen for dial tone.

Note:

• If a number on your Call Rejection list is also put on any of your other lists (for example, Priority Ringing), Call Rejection overrides the other services for that phone number.
• When the maximum numbers of callers is on your list and you add another, the first number on the list will be bumped off the list
• If the number you are trying to reach is outside the area served by Call Rejection, you will hear a recording advising you that the call cannot be made.
