Hello Everyone,

We received about twelve calls from an Unknown Name Private Number starting around 12:00pm. I was wondering if there is a way to trace the phone number? I know you can on a cell phone but they called the lan line. I called Comcast and they game me a feature to block all private calls but I really want to find out who is pranking or accidently calling me. Thank you for your help!

dont pick up the phone.you do have caller id so its not like youll miss anything

*69  should call them back.. sometimes it will not with private #s but the phone co. should be able to trace it write down the times and dates and write a written request to the phone co for the info..

yes there is a way, you hit *57 or something (call and ask phone company or police dept for the exact sequence). you won't get the info but the phone company flags the call. you then go to police dept and file a complaint and they get info from phone co.

Thank you everyone for your help! They called and it was just air on the phone. I am starting to wondering if it was an automated call.

Tried that it would not provide the phone number since it was private.

*57 is different than *67. It's for putting a "trace" on the line. Not sure but you may have to talk to the phone company first, there may be a fee involved. Probably only worth it if it becomes a nuisance.

Local news rag was constantly bugging me and I was gonna blast a portable boat horn into the phone. I wonder if that would screw up the phone?
