Some fifteen years ago I had a box which filtered out WITHHELD calls and sent them to an announce machine, which asked callers either to phone my mobile (number stated) or to redial using the 1470 prefix. Back then there was no requirement on junk callers to present valid CLI, so most of them did present WITHHELD; and also I received far fewer valid calls that presented WITHHELD. Interestingly, a lot of the cold callers then were people trying to sell advertising that I did not want - it was very effective at stopping them too. -- Russell http://www.russell-hafter-holidays.co.uk Russell Hafter Holidays E-mail to enquiries at our domain Need a hotel? <http://www.hrs.com/?client=en__blue&customerId=416873103>
