For the last 5 consecutive mornigns, I have been recieveing restricted calls frm some jackass on my cell! Every morning @ exactly 5:50am! I can't chgn my number as it has too many business contacts and would be a hassle to update! to my knowledge, a restricted call can't be traced ... correct??? if there is a way to find the number I would like to know. any help would be appreciated!
Trace cell phone calls?

They should be able to, just because you can't see the number doesn't mean it is untraceable.
I also believe harassing phone calls are illegal. You could get the cops involved.........

The cell phone companies won't do a thing, not that they can't, unless you get the police involved.

Legally, the telco's cannot do a trace on request from a person. You can have the number blocked, using a call manager service, however. To trace a call, you would need to contact the police, they, in turn, would contact the telco's law enforcement liaison.
Does that work with Cellphones? I know in the olden days you could blow someone's eardrum doing that.......
Put your phone on silent in the morning if you are asleep then.
If it persists, call the phone company ..
They will tell you they cant do anything and if you have to file a report.
If I were you, and if its really annoying, file a report and get that mother f**ker raped by the cops !

Been there. Cops will not do anything unless the calls are threatening. Play hardball with your carrier. Tell them you want that number blocked (in case there is some CRTC regulation that prevents them from giving you the #). Tell them if you are forced to change your number, you will look at switching to a different carrier.
Given the circumstances, i don't think my cell phone company will be helpful as they are not threatening. the reason why I would like to know is that I have a hunch that its my ex girlfriend (either that or I am paranoid). but without proof I can't nail her! (no pun intended)!
I would just ignore it. Don't give that person the satisfaction of knowing that you are pissed off. Eventually it will stop. Don't answer it. Pretend you didn't hear it.
I had an ex-girlfriend calling late at night too, and when I answer, it was just quiet. But in my case I think she just wanted to see if I was home or whatever...
anyway what I did was, I made a friend tape himself saying something like:
"This is the police department, we have received complaint about anonymous phone call, originating from your phone number. Take this as a warning and stop harassing phone number XXXX, otherwise, legal action will be taken against you."
Then when she called, I just played that msg, and sure after I never received any phone calls.
Hope this works for you.
