The Call Barring service does not work with the Call Forwarding service.
You can call emergency services (101, 102, 103, 104, 112) in any case, regardless of the ban.
Only one incoming and one outgoing direction can be prohibited at the same time. Setting a new ban leads to the cancellation of the previous ban in the same direction.
