But how does the phone KNOW if it is diverted or not? Isn't the caller-
id record exactly the same? I believe it is, since the diversion
(redirection) is handled by the central office; you don't get the info
that the caller dialed a different number. In that case the best you
can do is look in your Contacts, if it isn't in your contacts, assume
it is someone you don't know, calling the Helpdesk number diverted to
your phone.

There is an 'unoffical hack' to get the phone number,

method yet.
