- 1). Press "141" before you enter the full telephone number of the person you're calling. This is the UK equivalent of pressing "*67" in the U.S. to hide caller display. If you're phoning the UK from the U.S., then use "*67" to hide your ID. However, this method is single-use only. The next time you make a call from the same phone and want to hide the ID, you need to enter "141."
- 2). Dial "100" from a UK land line to connect with a UK telephone operator and request to be transferred to a UK number. It will show up as a different number at the other end. In the U.S., dial "0" to reach the operator.
- 3). Contact your telephone service and ask for a permanent block on your caller ID. Most networks should be able to comply.
