Caller ID blocking is used to block your Cricket number from being identified when calling a phone with the Caller ID feature. When calling any phone with Caller ID, your number will be shown as a restricted number. This feature can be added to your account free of charge.
The Caller ID feature allows Cricket customers to identify the person who is calling. When your Cricket phone rings, you are able to view the number that is calling. In some cases the calling party can choose to block their number from being displayed. This feature is helpful in returning dropped calls or avoiding unwanted calls.
