Fax Phone Switch - Definition and Use

Anonymous Call Rejection (ACR) - Allows you to automatically reject calls from parties who have activated a privacy feature preventing the delivery of their calling number and/or name to the called party. Once this feature is activated, the call is routed to a denial announcement and subsequently terminated. You will not receive any alerting for a call that is rejected.

If you do not want to receive a call from someone when Caller ID is blocked, respond with an
announcement that informs the caller that you are not accepting Caller ID blocked calls and tells the caller to unblock their phone number if they wish to speak with you. You must purchase Caller ID to activate this function. To activate this feature press *77. To deactivate, press *87.

See caller id blocking.
