Method and apparatus for relaying calling information such as Automatic Number Information (ANI) in a public or private telephone network. The calling information is relayed from a base telephone to a remote receiver (pager or telephone) in a one step process. A caller is given an option via voice prompts to automatically relay the calling information by pressing a specified button on the telephone keypad. The caller is not required to acquire and dial the remote receiver number, or input the calling party telephone number. The calling information is automatically read back to the caller, wherein the caller is prompted to verify the number by pressing another specified button. The voice prompts may be in the called party's preprograrnmed voice or in a computer generated voice. Method and apparatus is implemented in digital or analog telephone networks.
