You didn't say where you were dialing from. Since the machine that does the
identification could probably be wired to most any number an individual
TelCo wanted to wire it to you could do a lot of guessing.
Here in Verizon territory (formerly part of GTE of the Northwest) I can dial
999 to learn the ten digit number of the line I'm using. Just a few blocks
away, In Qwest territory (formerly part of Pacific Northwest Bell) dialing
that number results in being sent to an intercept recording.
So the number can be real variable - good luck finding it!
That's why I'd use your cell phone's display as you described.
