TrapCall
"Always Know Who's Calling."
Do you get annoying prank calls? Do you hate blocked calls? If you're like most people, you probably think "why even bother having Caller ID if people can call me with blocked, private and restricted phone numbers?"
TrapCall is a brand new service in the US that lets you unmask blocked calls so you'll always know who's really calling. TrapCall works by taking advantage of conditional call-forwarding on your cell phone and special rules for calls to toll-free numbers that allows toll-free numbers to always see the Caller ID number — even if the number is blocked. Because companies have to pay per minute for incoming calls to toll-free numbers Caller ID is unrestricted to these numbers and TrapCall takes advantage of that in its programming.
It's simple, you sign up for TrapCall and receive a few numbers to punch into your phone to get TrapCall programmed on your phone. Your rejected and unanswered calls get call forwarded to TrapCall's toll-free number where TrapCall unmasks the number and then sends the call back to your phone, with the unblocked Caller ID of the caller!
(If at this point, you still don't believe that TrapCall actually works, check out their Media page on their site, where they have links to reviews by the New York Times, Washington Times, Wired Magazine, MSNBC and more. You can't make that stuff up!)
The best part of TrapCall is that it works on pretty much any cell phone in the USA! If you have AT&T, T-Mobile, Sprint or Verizon Wireless you're eligible for TrapCall. So, YES, it works on the iPhone, the Droid, the Nexus One, The Android Incredible, The Palm Pre, and pretty much every BlackBerry! (We use it on our iPhone 3GS!)

Why is TrapCall the best option for figuring out who is behind blocked calls?
Because without TrapCall you have to setup your own toll-free number, forward your calls to that toll free number, and then forward them back to ANOTHER number from that toll free number. This means you need to send ALL your calls to ANOTHER phone. So you need 2 phones to set something like this up for yourself, unless you can code up a call-forwarding system on your own!
For under $5 a month, TrapCall saves you a huge hassle. A toll free number alone can be MUCH more than $5 bucks a month. And you only need 1 phone/phone number for TrapCall. It's just a huge convenience to use TrapCall over your own homebrew solution.

Other Features of TrapCall
Caller ID unblocking isn't TrapCall's only feature. They actually offer a few other cool features, in their 3 different packages.
-Number Blacklisting (Choose a number to blacklist and that caller will hear a recording telling them that your number has been disconnected!)
-Incoming Call Recording (TrapCall is actually the FIRST service to offer INCOMING call recording! Record your incoming calls to document your calls and play them back later!)
-Voicemail Transcriptions (Get your voicemail messages transcribed and sent to you as text messages! You never have to listen to voicemails again and you can get your message anywhere, even if you're in a meeting or a loud room.)
-True Caller ID Name & Address (TrapCall sends you text messages with the incoming callers Caller ID Name and their billing address on file! So you REALLY know who's calling you and from where.)
(Sorry, but TrapCall is only for cell phones in the USA right now.)
