Caller ID

Caller ID is actually a combination of 2 distinct services which can be subscribed to separately or together.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Calling Number Delivery - $7.00 Res / $8.00 Bus

Lets you know who's calling before you pick up the phone. Calling Number Delivery allows you to identify most callers by letting you see their number on a special display device (sold separately). When you are out, or don't want to answer the phone, Caller Number ID lets you store the numbers so that you may return calls when you wish. If a PRIVATE or ANONYMOUS call appears on your screen, the caller may have blocked the display of their number by pressing *67 before placing the call. If OUT OF AREA, UNAVAILABLE, or UNKNOWN appears, the caller is in an area that does not support Calling Number Delivery services.

AIl customers have the option of blocking their number from being delivered by pressing *67 before placing a call.

To Use

  1. You will need to purchase a CALLER ID UNIT, or use a special display phone.
  2. Wait until the telephone completes its first ringing cycle for the number to appear.

Things To Remember

  • All telephone users can block the delivery of their telephone numbers on a per call basis. If you wish to block delivery of your number, dial *67, wait for the dial tone, then dial the number you are calling. Your call will then be classified as "Anonymous" and the number you are calling from, will not be available to Caller ID units. However, be aware that some locations block "Anonymous" calls and do not allow them to ring through. In these cases you would get a recorded message.
  • Caller ID Information: If your line is equipped with per-line blocking, you can disable this block on a per-call basis by pressing *82 (rotary phones dial 1182) before you dial your call. This feature turns off per-line blocking for only the call placed after *82 or 1182 is dialed, and will result in your number being received by subscribers of Caller ID.
