 * Call 1-800-XFINITY for non-published telephone number pricing information.

 Comcast does not publish phone numbers; however, phone numbers may exist in databases not controlled by Comcast - if, for example, your present phone number or address was provided to businesses or government agencies. One way to help protect your privacy may be to request assignment of a new telephone number (with which your name has not been previously associated). You may also want to activate Caller ID blocking or select the do-not-call option, as described below.
Caller ID
(Name and Telephone Number)		 Yes. Caller ID provides your name and telephone number to the person you are calling.

Yes. You have two Options:

Per Line Caller ID Blocking – (automatically blocks Caller ID for all calls you make from that telephone number)

Per Call Caller ID Blocking – (blocks name and number Caller ID on a per call basis)

 To activate Per Line Caller ID Blocking – at no charge, call 1-800-XFINITY

To enable Per Call Caller ID Blocking – dial *86 before each call you want to block.
