I’ve tried calling people to withhold my number by doing 141 before caller number. It won’t work. What can I do?

thanks

    Hi ​@maggiet 

     

    Thank you for getting in touch with us.

    If 141 is not withholding your number when making calls, please try the following:

    Make sure you are entering 141 directly before the full phone number with no spaces, for example: 14107123456789
    Restart your phone and try again
    Check your phone settings to ensure Caller ID is not set to “Show Number”

    On most phones, you can check this under:
    Settings > Phone > Show My Caller ID (iPhone)
    or
    Phone App > Settings > Supplementary Services > Caller ID (Android)

     

    Thank you,
