My husband's oldest sister has caller ID blocked on her land line, so
it appears on our cell phones as "private number" and we don't pick it
up because it's not identified. Of course, she gets "mad" at us - but
all she needs to do is temporarily unblock it when she calls us (which
she always "forgets" to do). She'll never change, so it's a stand off
because we won't pick up when she calls us from her house line.
Identify yourself or talk to the answering machine.
