When I called the Pac Bell customer service droids to get my "complete" blocking I asked them why they won't block CID to 800 numbers. Their answer: "that's just the way it works".
There is a really easy reason for this. When you call an 800 number, the other guy gets billed. The person that gets billed has a legal right to know the call details of a toll call they are paying for. If you don't want them to know where you are calling from, don't ask them to pay for it. Perry
