In this case you would likely be sent to a voicemail system or kept on hold until another operator is available.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, instances like these are increasing in frequency due to a shortage of 911 operators nationwide. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This has left callers on hold for a few seconds up to several minutes. To make matters worse, the shortage has caused numerous facilities to shut down, which means callers are being outsourced to 911 facilities further away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The result is increased response time and a higher potential of calls being placed on hold as this facility now covers the needs of residents in two regions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But that is just referencing when people initially call 911. Your operator might also put you on hold during your call while they contact other emergency services or for similar reasons aimed at assisting you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In both cases, they will explicitly explain what they\u2019re doing and why, so the hold period is as stress-free as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Have you ever wondered <a href=\"https:\/\/firefighternow.com\/calling-911-anonymously-is-it-even-possible\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">if you can call 911 anonymously<\/a>? I wrote an entire article about it which you can check out by following that link.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_911_Hang_Up_on_Me\"><\/span>Can 911 Hang Up on Me?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Emergency situations are stressful and terrifying enough on their own without the additional fear that your 911 operator will hang up on you mid-call. The question is: how reasonable is this fear?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>If you are in a confirmed emergency situation, your 911 operator will not hang up on you unless the situation requires it. An example would be for them to hang up and call again to locate your phone and, by extension, you. They might also need to hang up to contact a certain emergency service for you.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That being said, 911 operators aren\u2019t legally required to stay on the line with you in every situation. Most are required by protocol to stay on the line, and even so, they probably wouldn\u2019t even consider hanging up on a caller. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, there are times when it might be warranted. Prank calls are a prime example of this.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the operator can determine that the call is a blatant misuse of the service and is inhibiting them from assisting other callers, they <em>might <\/em>hang up. But usually, they\u2019ll urge the caller to hang up instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Happens_If_You_Prank_Call_911\"><\/span>What Happens If You Prank Call 911?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re concerned about 911 blocking your phone number, most likely the reason is that you know the device has been used to call the number more times than is appropriate (most likely young kids making prank calls).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, if you accidentally call 911 they will not block your number. I wrote an article on what to do in case you <a href=\"https:\/\/firefighternow.com\/accidentally-call-911-do-this\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">accidentally call 911<\/a>, click the link to check it out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since we already know that 911 is not legally permitted to block a number that has consistently prank called them, what are the consequences for abusing this service, if any?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Prank calling 911 or performing similar actions where the service is knowingly used for reasons other than an emergency is legally considered a crime. The penalty will depend on the conditions of the case, but can include:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>A misdemeanor charge<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>A felony charge<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>A fine charge (amount depends on state. Average is $1,000-$2,500)<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>A jail time sentence (amount depends on state and crime charge. Average is 1-3 years)<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>At first glance, these punishments might seem severe, but they are in place to reflect the seriousness of the crime. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Abusing the 911 service when you are not in an emergency situation prevents employees from assisting individuals who <em>are, <\/em>which could have serious consequences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you ever questioned whether 911 has or will block your phone number, you can rest at ease knowing that this never occurs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if you see this as a green light to abuse the service, keep in mind that heavy penalties are set in place for such a crime that far exceed a caller block.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When you&#8217;re in an emergency, the last thing you want to worry about is whether or not &#8230; <\/p>\n<p class=\"read-more-container\"><a title=\"Can 911 REALLY Block My Number?\" class=\"read-more button\" href=\"https:\/\/firefighternow.com\/can-911-really-block-my-number\/#more-504111\" aria-label=\"Read more about Can 911 REALLY Block My Number?\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":504112,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[100021],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Can 911 REALLY Block My Number? | FireFighterNow<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"When you&#039;re in an emergency, the last thing you want to worry about is whether or not your 911 call will get through.
