-
To use Privacy Manager®
-
- An unidentified caller dials your home.
- Privacy Manager® intercepts the caller before your phone rings.
- If the caller chooses to identify himself, Privacy Manager® rings your line.
- When you answer, you hear the caller's name and you can choose to:
- Press 1 to accept the call.
- Press 2 to decline the call.
- Press 3 to refuse a sales call.
- If you pressed 1, the call goes through. If you pressed 2 or 3, the caller will hear a brief message from Privacy Manager® and then the call is disconnected.
-
To use the PIN feature
-
- The callers dial your number and Privacy Manager® intercepts the call.
- Upon hearing the Privacy Manager® announcement, the caller enters the PIN that you previously selected.
- The call is connected to you immediately.
- You will hear a distinctive ring* (three short rings in a row), and you receive the call without hearing the Privacy Manager® prompts.
* The distinctive ring feature is not available in all areas.
-
To establish or change your PIN
-
- Just dial 1-888-774-5212 and follow the simple instructions.
- You may establish or change your PIN only from the line upon which Privacy Manager® resides.
- The PIN setup process will take effect approximately one hour from the completion of your call.
- PINs may be two-, three- or four-numeric digits in length.
- If you forget your PIN, you will need to call 1-888-774-5212 and request another PIN.
