What does the caller hear when his/her number is blocked?

Successfully blocked a phone number on Verizon, but just wondering if the person texting/calling from that number realizes anything or if it just seems to go through?

Hello mring,
Unwanted calls are not fun at all! We at Verizon Wireless understand that, which is why we came out with this neat blocking feature! Since this question gets asked a lot by our customers, I would like the opportunity to provide some clarity on the topic. May I ask are you using our free call blocking option? If so then below is the message that the person being blocked will hear.
"Welcome to Verizon Wireless. The number you were trying to reach has calling restrictions which has prevented the completion of your call."
If you do not want the person being blocked to know that he/she is being blocked then please reply to this posting so I can provide additional options for you!
Thank you...

  • What does the caller hear when they call a "Blocked Number"?

    Just curious to find out what the caller hears when they try to call me when I have blocked their number. TWC was calling non-stop to try to get me to add new services. Thanks.

    Callers you have blocked will hear "Welcome to Verizon Wireless. The number you were trying to reach has calling restrictions which has prevented the completion of your call."
    People attempting to text to your number will get a notification that delivery failed.

  • HT201229 If I block a number , what does the caller, or text messager get as a response on their end?

    If I block a number . What response does that party get if they call or text my number?

    The call/message simply won't go through. If iMessage, it will show as delivered, but it actually won't be delivered.
    Here's what it sounds like on their end, for calls:

  • What does the screen display when charging?

    I finally got my nano to keep charging while not updating from itunes...since this is my first charge, my screen is displaying "do not disconnect" with the lightning bolt going through a green battery in upper rt. corner of screen. Does this mean it is actually charging? When it finishes charging does the "do not disconnect" go away?

    this actually means your iPod is in disk mode. you'll need to eject it before that goes away: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61135

  • What does the message mean when firefox says something is trying to get it unsecurely update itself

    A few times per week I get a message that says something is trying to update Firefox unsecurely . It tell me to make sure that I am running the most current version of Firefox. I don't understand who or what is trying to do this or more importantly why.

    You can check for problems with preferences.
    Rename or delete the prefs.js file and possible numbered prefs-##.js files and a possible user.js file to reset all prefs to the default value.

    Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    *Firefox 24: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
    *Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

    *(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
    *It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

    Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

  • What does the Ipad do when loading IOS 6?

    I am trying to download IOS6. My I pad is showing the apple logo then it goes away and then comes back. Is this normal. I know it takes awhile to download IOS6. I just want to make sure my Ipad is actually downloading and not stuck. Thanks!

    If you keep having problems downloading from your device, try upgrading through iTunes.
    I usually prefer that way, especially if the Wifi signal isn't so good.

  • When I block my caller Id what does the other person see.

    My question is when I block my number/caller id on my iphone what does the reciever of the call see? Restricted/blocked or could it possibly be a bunch of numbers?? Like 13 digits. would it depend on the phone the other person has like if it is an old flip phone?
    (when scrolling down I dont know the operating system) so ignore my answer to that if it even shows??

    Depends on the carrier you use and the recipient's device. More than likely Blocked.

  • What are the rules for when a Calling VI has be resaved after a subVI is changed?

    We are planning on making changes to a driver set.  However, if one of our applications has VIs that have to be resaved because of these changes, then we will have to go through an extensive validation process for each application.  Therefore, it would be very helpful for us if we knew what changes can be made without the caller VIs needing to be resaved.  If a caller VI does need to be resaved, what about it's caller VIs?
    For example, I know that adding or deleting a control would require the caller VIs to be resaved.  What other rules are there?  Sometimes it seems like I did nothing that would change the connector pane, yet the caller VIs have to be resaved (i.e., they get the asterisk).  Does anyone have a full list of when VIs need to be resaved when their subVIs are changed?
    Thanks,
    Tom

    First of all, I should emphasize that I'm talking about not making any changes to the VI itself, only changes to the subVI that it's calling.  In doing experiments with one VI and one subVI, I get the same explanation each time in the Current Changes field:  "VI recompiled." and "SubVI call(s) modified.".  Both are pretty generic.
    Since no one has so far responded with a list, here is the start of a list:
    1.  Adding or deleting controls and/or indicators.
    2.  Changing the label and/or description of a control or indicator.
    3.  Adding a for loop to the block diagram.
    Those are the obvious ones.  There are others I could add to the list, but these don't seem to be very consistent.  For example:
    4.  Connecting or disconnecting wires to controls or indicators.
    5.  Wiring a control to a case statement (a specific example of #4).
    In regards to #5, yesterday, in my experimental VI (I've enclosed them), I wired the numeric control to a case statement, then saved the subVI.  The calling VI then needed to be resaved.  I disconnected the numeric control and wired up the string control to the case statement.  Once I saved the subVI, the asterisk appeared on the calling VI.  This was very consistent.  Now, this morning, I do the same thing, but the calling VI doesn't need to be resaved.
    So my question is, when does the calling VI decide it needs to be resaved?  Since I haven't made any changes to the connector pane, or to the controls and indicators, why does the calling VI need to be resaved?  Why should the calling VI care if a for loop is added to the subVI?
    Since the driver I'm working on is called by 15 different drivers, which is called by 20 different application, all of which have been validated, I really don't want to have to revalidate all of these drivers and applications, simply because I went in and fixed a bug in a low-level driver.  So any information that helps me to understand what triggers a calling VI to recompile due to a change in a subVI would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!
    Tom

  • I was playing with my ipad settings (it's an older model) and noted in the advanced settings of Safari there was a place to view website databases.  When I clicked on this I saw websites.  How do these get there and what does the space amount mean?

    I was playing with my ipad settings and noted in he advanced settings of Safari there was a place to view "website databases".  When I selected this I saw a multitude of websites.
    Can anyone tell me how these get there?  Can a website be posted even if it was never went to?  What does the space amount mean?  For example, 1.5 kb...is this quite a bit?  Would it indicate someone has gone to a site multiple times?
    I share my ipad with my teenage daughter and I'm trying to find out if she's lying to me.  Obviously she's swearing that she has "no idea" how these got there and I'm trying to keep her safe (she's only 14).
    Thanks everyone.

    Think of your PC and the 'temporary internet folder' where it keeps cached copies of web pages or elements off a web page for 'quicker display the next time you visit'. That's pretty much what that folder is. 1.5K is tiny. Probably just a basic page with some text on it. (you might be confusing 1.5K with 1.5 megabyte....megabyte is large...it's roughly 1000 kilobytes, so the 1.5K is a tiny file)
    As far as I know, the only way info gets into that folder is if the browser has been to that site.
    if you have a concern there are browsers out there, McGruff is one i've seen recommended, that allow some degree of parental control and supervision. That or you could passcode lock the iPad or enable the restrictions to turn off some parts of the device to have some control.

    Hello apple
    I have the problem with my iPhone and my friends have this problem too.
    My iPhone have the problem about calling and answer the call. When I use my iPhone to call I can't hear anything from my iPhone but the person that I call can answer it but when answer both of us can't hear anything and when I put my iPhone to my face the screen is still on and when I quit the phone application and open it again it will automatic call my recent call. And when my friends call me my iPhone didn't show anything even the missed call I'm only know that I missed the call from messages from carrier. Please check these problem I restored my iPhone for 4 time now in this week. I lived in Hatyai, Songkhla,Thailand and many people in my city have this problem.
    Who have this problem??

    Apple isnt here. this is a user based forum for technical questions. The solution is to restart, reset, and restore as new which is in the manual after that get it replaced for hard ware failure. if your within your one year warranty its replaced if it is out of the warranty then it is 199$
