NOTE: You cannot make any changes to this service. Contact your administrator for assistance.
If your line has been decommissioned, Intercept User allows your administrator to gracefully take your phone out of service while providing callers with informative announcements and alternative routing options.
Depending on how this service is configured, the system may intercept incoming and/or outgoing calls from your line.
