Just renewed my a/c in Dec'23 and 14258 stopped working. Was told to use call block, but this doesn't work when you're sent a pass code by a BOT. The phone just goes dead!

Was then told to use last call barring......but 14258 says "sorry the service requested is not available". Please......how do I get the 14258 service back.....more so because call block is not suitable if your contacting your Banks to get a login from a BOT.......HELP

All seems to be back on and working, thanks Chris.

Now to see what happens over the next few weeks, will it all still stay be the same?

Debbie, Just for information 

"My Telephone Setting" is within "Profile & Settings" not "Network & Connection", at least on my system.
