Caller ID Withheld buster?

Shad0r · 2005-05-24 14:58:55

Anybody have any idea if the technology to defeat 'Caller ID Withheld' is widely available? Also, if so is it legal? i.e. some funk head is continually calling the house here from a withheld number and then hanging up (almost definitely his/her mobile) and I want to know what the number is.

Maybe phone Gardaí / phone company and report the abuse.. Or if you have a friend in either see what they can do...
