Phone Codes Guide - Star Codes


Vertical Calling Codes Guide
Here is a list of digital telephone calling feature codes for controlling your phone. These
"Star Codes" are used by AT&T, and other telephone companies.
These codes are called VSC - Vertical Service Codes. I list them here because 1) I could
not get the AT&T Guide instructions included with my April telephone bill to work, and
2) because AT&T does not publish the 3-digit codes online.

INCORRECT INSTRUCTIONS included in April phone bill -


"You can get more information 24 hours a day from anywhere in California by calling
our toll-free hotline: 1-800-214-8433. Just press the 3-digit code listed by each service
described in this brochure, or follow the prompts."

CORRECTED INSTRUCTIONS -
"You can get more information 24 hours a day from anywhere in California by calling
our toll-free hotline: 1-800-214-8433. Press one for English. Then Press 9, then Just press
the 3-digit code listed by each service described in this brochure, or follow the prompts."

The author is in no way affiliated with AT&T.
Although the author has tried to be as accurate as possible, errors are possible.
I could not find a telephone star code guide like the above. So, I made this one, to
summarize all the common Vertical Service Codes. I hope that it helps you. Especially,
since AT&T does NOT provide the codes online.

FiOS Phone STAR CODES Cheat Sheet

Verizon Phone users - here's something to staple next to your phone :-)
Trying to remember all the * (STAR) codes for using the various features of your phone
services?

Everyonce in ahile they can drive you crazy, so I found this list over at BellSouth today,
and it’s the best I’ve ever seen. NOte that some telephone networks may use alternate
dialing codes than these, however these are the “official” StarCodes of the AT&T Bell
System (as an International Standard).

Remember, you can quite often save lots on your traditional telephone service if you have
broadband cable access in your home. By picking up a (usually) free router with either
Vonage, Packet 8, Lingo or another VOIP based service built-in, then you can connect
traditional telephones with the same number you already have, and tons more features,
free long distance (with Lingo, you can call the US, Canada, Mexico and UK for FREE!).

Do you have other links and resources to share, please do!

Telephone * Star Codes

Many a successful phone prank might start with knowing the Bell Telephone Star Codes.
These codes are in use on land lines in the US and any other country that has adopted
them.

These also work with most cellular phones. However, you may want to check with the
provider for more information.

*57: Call Trace


This is a great feature that lets you find out the most recent number that has called you.

To use: dial *57

*77: Anonymous Call Rejection


If someone is attempting to call you and their caller ID is blocked, you can stop them
from calling unless they unblock their number. It's also useful if you are going to call
someone on a phone that may have the feature turned on. I have no idea what you are
planning. But this is how you activate and deactivate the feature:

To turn on feature: dial *77


To turn off the feature: dial *87

*67: Block an outgoing call


For a number of very good reasons, you may want to block the number you are calling
from. Dialing *67, then the number will allow you to do that for one phone call. It's very
useful if you want to call up someone and chew their ass out.

To use: dial *67 000-000-0000


Other Phone Codes:

There are so many possibilities, I can't list them all. Here are the full list of phone *
codes.

Play safe and have fun!


*677 is what is called a "star code." There are also "pound codes," which have the pound
sign, #, in front of a series of numbers instead of a star, *. Technically, they are not
numbers but a code telling the system which controls the cellular network to perform a
function. In this example, when Lauren dialed *677, the code told the system to dial the
local police. Other codes you may be familiar with might show you the number of
minutes you have used or what your current balance is.

The big thing about star/pound codes is that they can vary depending on which network
you're using and where you're at. In this example, the customer was using Bell Mobility,
which is a Canadian cellular provider, more than likely *677 will not work in the United
States. Or it may, but only on certain networks in certain areas.

Where I live, on the CellularONE network, these are the star/pound codes available to
subscribers:
*46-Kansas Highway Patrol Dispatch
*47-Kansas Highway Patrol (this code is not available in all areas of Kansas)
*55-Missouri Highway Patrol
*582-Kansas Turnpike Authority
*104-KXBZ Radio
*1220-KOFO Radio
*1350-KROQ/KMAN/KNBZ Radio
*1017-KVOE FM Radio
*1400-KVOE AM Radio
*910-KINA Radio
*1079-KSOK Radio

I e-mailed T-Mobile Customer Service to see if they had any star/pound codes available
for my area at this time. This is the information I initially got:

The star codes we currently support are as follows:
