What is Caller ID Deluxe and how do I use it?
Caller ID Deluxe (a.k.a, Caller ID with Name) is an enhancement of Caller ID Service. Caller ID Deluxe allows the subscriber to view the telephone number and the name of the person listed as the holder of that telephone number on an incoming call before the call is answered. The Caller ID Deluxe feature works automatically, however it requires customer provided equipment. The customer must select and purchase a display box or feature compatible telephone (Caller ID Deluxe display is standard on most new telephones). These products are sold at most retail stores. Display boxes/telephones may display a message of: No Data Sent, Unavailable or an out-of-area from calls outside of especially equipped areas, calls made through an operator and/or calls from lines not accepting incoming calls. Blocked callers will display blocked or private unless customer has activated call rejection.
