How to Withhold Your BT Number
- 1). Dial "141" on your phone's keypad before making your call. Your number will not display on the recipient's phone, and is displayed as "Withheld Number" on caller ID. If the call recipient dials "1471" to identify the caller, she will be told that the number is withheld.
- 2). Call BT customer service if you want to permanently withhold your number (see Resources). All calls you make will be withheld, unless you choose otherwise.
- 3). Dial "1470" before the number you are calling if you have permanently withheld your number but want to reveal it when calling that particular recipient.
