Call barring facilities

In order to prevent problems arising from provision and use of telecommunications services, FICORA has decided to specify categories of calls that may be barred.

A user may thus choose which calls he or she wishes to bar. Barring may concern calls and text messages to premium rate service numbers and international calls. Operators may provide additional barring options.

The holder of the connection can have calls and text messages barred free of charge. Operators, however, may charge a fee for releasing them.

More detailed information about the service numbers and barring categories can be found in the Regulation on Barring Categories in Telecommunications (FICORA 35).
