Note : If you have a hybrid variant device, you will be able to select between SIM1 or SIM2 to customize the Call Barring Settings.
Note: If you are prompted to enter in a password try using 0000, once this has been entered in you will be able to enable or disable your Call Barring settings. If you have tried using 0000 as the passcode but it is unsuccessful, you will need to reach out to your service provider for further support.
Note:
- If you don't have Supplementary services option, contact your provider since some of the providers don't have that feature.
- If you still could not activate your call barring service, please contact your country service provider or contact our call center for more assistance.
