Some features are available
on a pay-as-you-go basis. You can pay for Repeat Call, Call
Return, Call Block, Caller ID Blocking, Call Trace and Three-Way
Calling only when you choose to use them.
Call Trace
Call Trace is used to trace your last incoming call for identification
of the person causing harassment. By activating Call Trace,
RCN will attempt to record your last incoming call. After
activating this feature the customer should contact their
local law enforcement to report the harassing, life threatening
or terroristic call. This information will not be provided
to the customer, but will be released to authorities upon
proper request.

Per Use Call Block
Is there someone you don't want to talk to? Prevent
future calls; build a directory (up to ten numbers) of those numbers that
you do not wish to receive incoming calls from. This feature can be purchased
on a monthly basis or on a per use basis.
If purchased on a per use basis, a small fee will be
charged once every 24 hours while the Call Block feature is activated. To
deactivate Call Block on a per use basis, remove all telephone numbers stored
in the directory list.

Per Use Caller ID Blocking
Want to prevent people from seeing your
name and number on their caller ID display unit? With Per
Use Caller ID Blocking, each call that you make from your
home phone will display "Private" or "Anonymous" on the called
party's display unit, instead of your name and number.
