What is Call Trace?
Call Trace ensures that the number of your last incoming caller is recorded so that appropriate action may be taken against the harassing party.
Note: There is a $5 fee for this service and should only be used in serious situations. Trace information will only be released to the police; it will not be provided to you. You must contact the police if you wish to take action on a traced call. May not be available in certain areas.
How to use Call Trace?
  • Hang up after receiving the threatening or harassing call.
  • Lift the receiver and dial *57 (or 1157 on rotary phones).
  • Wait for a confirmation dial tone or a recording telling you that call trace has been placed and hang up.
