Do you want to know why you get your phone number?\n\nOkay, so if your phone number was actualy one number as opposed to a series of digits and it was abc-defg then it is actualy \n\n(a*10^6) + (b*10^5) + (c*10^4) + (d*10^3) + (e*10^2) + (f*10^1) + (g*10^0)\n\nwhich means you start with (a*10^6) + (b*10^5) + (c*10^4)\n\nMultiplying by 80 gives\n(8a*10^7) + (8b*10^6) + (8c*10^5)\n\nAdding 1 gives\n(8a*10^7) + (8b*10^6) + (8c*10^5) + 1\n\nMultiplying by 250 gives\n(2000a*10^7) + (2000b*10^6) + (2000c*10^5) + 250\nwhich equals (2a*10^10) + (2b*10^9) + (2c*10^8) + 250\n\nAdding the last 4 digits is the same as adding\n(d*10^3) + (e*10^2) + (f*10^1) + (g*10^0) which gives\n\n(2a*10^10) + (2b*10^9) + (2c*10^8) + (d*10^3) + (e*10^2) + (f*10^1) + (g*10^0) + 250 \n\nAdding them again gives\n(2a*10^10) + (2b*10^9) + (2c*10^8) + (2d*10^3) + (2e*10^2) + (2f*10^1) + (2g*10^0) + 250 \n\nSubtracting 250 gives\n(2a*10^10) + (2b*10^9) + (2c*10^8) + (2d*10^3) + (2e*10^2) + (2f*10^1) + (2g*10^0)\n\nAnd so dividing by 2 gives\n(a*10^6) + (b*10^5) + (c*10^4) + (d*10^3) + (e*10^2) + (f*10^1) + (g*10^0)\n\nwhich is your phone number. This process is the same if you do it backwards. (Multipy where you would divide etc...) This is the same thing as multiplying a number by 4 then dividing it by 2 then dividiing it by 2 then adding 5 then subtracting (20/4)\n\nSorry if I took the magic out of it, but that's the math that explains why it works.

Err.... oh this is a hard one.\n\nCan I phone a friend?

absolutely not! you are saying you are a DSL user. while the DSL and your phone line share the same line they are actually seperate. your phone line shares half with your DSL and half with your actual land line.. you use a filter that makes the seperation of DSL with your land line.. so NO they couldnt get that number.. unless you got hacked and you have that info avalible on your pc.. but thats another story

You can do what is called a reverse phone look up but when you place a cell number it usually only brings up the city. You can also do this for home phone and some unlisted as well.\nwhitepages.com

On your phone try going to any given contact and you should have another thing that says like options or details, and once you click that you'll have an option to send text messages that is if it's on your plan, if you don't and you start texting people be warned of a dollar charge for each text you send and receive! Calling your provider should also help you as well if you don't mind waiting on hold for a spell.

Gauge it based on who exactly you're talking to.\n\n1. If you get a call from a recorded voice saying "I have an important call for you...please hold.", that's grounds for an immediate hang-up.\n\n2. If it's a legitimate business that called you and you want to speak with them and they put you on hold, I'd wait no more than 5 minutes on hold.\n\n3. If it's a business you called and they put you on hold, wait as long as is appropriate given the importance of the call.  For example, if you're doing a phone interview for a job, I would not hang up.\n\n4. A personal call from a friend or relative warrants no hang-up at all.

The only people, as far as I am aware, that can have your number if you withold it is, as you say, when you ring 999.  The Police can also apply to find out who you are and where you live from your telephone number, even if you've not dialled 999, in life or death emergencies, and for instances of serious crime.  Be aware, if you're texting from a phone in the UK, even if you withold your number on telephone calls, it won't withold your number on the texts.  Otherwise, the chat line shouldn't have your number.  It's worth contacting their customer service department and asking them how they got it.

Where I live in Indianapolis, IN. (Also AT&T) it's *69 for auto redial of the last number who called you. If someone has called since then it's a moot point. \n\n\nCALL RETURN\nEnables you to automatically call back to the last incoming number. The last number does not have to be known, nor did the call have to be answered for this feature to work. If the line is busy or there is no answer, the feature will automatically try calling the number for 30 minutes, but will still allow you to place outgoing calls in the interim. You will be notified by special ring when the line is no longer busy.\n\nActivation Codes\n\n*69 for touch tone \n1169 for rotary \nDeactivation Codes\n\n*89 for touch tone \n1189 for rotary \nInstructions\n\nFor activation: \nAt dial tone, enter appropriate code to call back last incoming call received \nYou may also receive a recording of the phone number, date and time of the last incoming call received and asked to press 1 to initiate call back \nIf number is busy, hang up and feature will automatically continue dialing number for 30 minutes \nWhen number is no longer busy, you will receive a distinctive ring that, when answered, will ring back at the requested Call Return number \nFor deactivation: \nAt dial tone, enter appropriate code \nCall Return will automatically deactivate after 30 minutes \nRestrictions/Requirements\n\nWill incur Toll and Long Distance (LD) charges on applicable calls \nIn some cases, Call Return may not work outside of your Local calling area \nCall Return cannot be activated if the number you are calling back: \nHas been forwarded to another number \nIs a private number \nHas a blocking feature \nIs an 800 or 900 number \nIf activated on a line with Custom Ring feature, the call will always return to the main line

Call customer service for your carrier. They should be able to tell where the calls are coming from. It would be helpful if you told us what the caller id says.

You could ask them for the phone that is already programmed with the certain numbers, like 911 and home.  Just check out all the cell phone companies and see what they offer.  I don't think that it is that much but well worth it.  My 12 year old daughter has a cell phone but she only gets to take it with her when she is away form us.  My husband and I have a plan and we added hers for only $10.00/month.  Now she can call us or 911 in an emergency and we can get a hold of her anytime.  If they have a phone, it won't cost you any minutes if the plan has mobile-to-mobile for free.  But even if they don't have one, ask for a prepaid phone.  Wal-mart and Target have them and they aren't that much.  If they put money on it and tell you that it is to last for 30 days and you run out, too bad for you.  RESPONSIBILITY!!!

Cell phones don't have a phone number unless there is service. There is a number behind the battery that the phone company uses to associate your phone with a number. Go to Cingular.
