Tushar 0 Report post Posted May 15, 2004 I've heard of getting calls from credit card companies etc to Hutch but never got any calls on my reliance phone. Maybe U had disclosed ur no. while registering for some card etc online or may have given it out somewhere Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ganesh 0 Report post Posted July 31, 2004 normally all these telemarketing calls will come as "restricted number" in the CLI so u can better ignore the call Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Let me tell you about a security option in case you apply this with LG RD2030 handset. If you press Call button twice, the caller gets nothing to listen! Single Press=Talk Double Press=Mute Enjoy!
