*69 gained popularity some time ago before a number of the newer calling features offered by telco's today existed. With *69, if you missed a call for whatever reason, you could hit "*69" on your end and receive a recording informing you of the last number that called your line. With so many calling features bundled with today's phone service, caller ID, browsed through can offer the same information without anything having to be dialled. The *69 service is still available however to the best of my knowledge. *87 before dialling an outbound call will block the originating number on the caller ID of the party being called. Hope this helps.
