Question *69 on a Blackberry?

Please Login to Remove!

These guys keep calling me, leaving gross messages on an unknown number.
I know that if that happens you can press *69 to return the call even if their blocked, but it's different on a Blackberry?

What's the number you dial to return the call?

Umm.... why would you want to call them back? The best thing is to delete the calls. There is an app that lets you block calls from unknown numbers.

There are some discussions on this app here, too.

Edit.. some other call blocking apps mentioned here:

This is because they will keep calling! I miss their calls though.
I just want to know who it is. Would T-mobile tell me?

I don't know if T-Mobile can trace the calls or not. You could ask.

If you call them back, they will surely keep calling because they know they got you. Just like spam... best thing is to not open (don't listen) and delete. Or block them.

Save the number with the VM msg, and make a police report. Then delete them. Just my opinion.

Do *67 and track the call then report it your local Police Department. They in turn can subpoena the records and go from there.
