How do I setup ‘Call Barring – Outgoing Calls’?
Posted on 18 September 2015 by Beaming SupportOutgoing Call Barring (OCB) is set up using a touch tone phone by pressing the key pad sequences outlined below.
For Single Lines
- Barring outgoing calls * 3 4 code #
- Cancelling # 3 4 code * PIN #
- Checking OCB * # 3 4 #
For Multi-lines Lines
- Barring outgoing calls * 3 5 code * PIN #
- Cancelling # 3 5 code * PIN #
- Checking OCB * # 3 5 #
The codes and functionality are as follows:
- Bars almost all calls including 1571, cancelling this option automatically cancels any other barring options.
- Bars national and international calls and calls to mobiles.
- Bars international calls.
- Bars all operator-connected calls and SMS calls.
- Bars calls to numbers with * or # in them.
- Not currently used.
- Bars all Premium Rate calls.
Note: The barring options depend on the type of telephone exchange the Customer is connected to. Most customers connected to a System X or 21CN exchange will receive barring codes exactly as described above. Customers connected to an older AXE10 telephone exchange will not receive an individual barring code 7 for Premium Rate calls. Instead, barring codes 2 or 3 will support Premium Rate barring (in addition to the call types shown in the list above).
