Dear kdy88,
You need to set this feature up through the VZW website, specifically on your My Verizon page. The feature when activated blocks your name/number from appearing for all calls, unless you manually disable the feature on a call-by-call basis.
The following is the description of the feature taken from the VZW website:
Caller ID Blocking | |
Permanently block your number from displaying to others when you call. If you want to allow your number to display on a per-call basis, you can dial *82 + area code and phone number + SEND. |

I once had a complete block so on all my outgoing calls so my number/name was blocked. This means that whoever received my call got a message that said RESTRICTED.. As I remember I had to call Verizon at 611 and they had to remove the block.
If you want to keep the total block except for family you can put *86 in front of family members and they can see your number/name but everyone else will get the RESTRICTED message. There is a fatal shortcoming when you add the *86 in front of their number which is, you no longer can send messages to them and that is why I removed the total block.
Last but not least if you remove the block but there are a few folks that you do not want to see your name/number just put *67 in front of their number and remember you cannot message them.
