Call Trace
Allows you to trace the telephone number of harassing calls through the phone company. Only law enforcement officers may retrieve this information from the phone company.

How to use Call Trace:

1. When you get a threatening or obscene call, depress the "switchhook" and release quickly. Listen for a special dial tone.

2. Press:   StarFive (5)Seven (7)
(On a rotary phone, dial 1157.)

3. You will hear a preliminary announcement describing the Call Trace feature.

Press: one (1) to proceed with the trace.

4. Listen for the confirmation announcement 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, contact the proper authorities.

  • Call Trace should be used immediately after you hang up on the call you wanted traced. If you get another call, or hear a Call Waiting tone first, you will trace the wrong call.
  • If you wish, you may still place outgoing calls before activating Call Trace.
  • A fee of $1.00 will be applied to your phone bill for each use.
