I have caller id and Verizon POTS and I can't tell you the last time I got someone's name when they call from a cell phone. Looking just at yesterday's calls...
I go to it occasionally trying to catch a story I missed. Never had a problem with it coming up; but: 1. It is VERY slow. 2. The stories are rarely updated 3....
I have 2 lines in my house; 1 with Verizon, 1 with Optimum Voice. CallerID information I get into both of them is fairly consistent. Wireless shows up as...
I just switched from Nextel to T-Mobile. The Find Me feature worked well on Nextel. On T-Mobile it works well except when I try to call my OV home phone. I...
Maybe call waiting isn't set up right with T-Mobile and it's going immediately to vm if you are on the phone. I think that could either be a network setting...
Thanks,I will try these... gb ... immediately to vm if you are on the phone. I think that could either be a network setting or a phone setting. ... where your...
That has something to do with the wireless carrier. Cingular shows the name and phone number of wireless phones. TMobile I believe also does the same. Not...
... No, Verizon does not pass the name. They pass the number, and a generic title. "Wireless Caller" or "New Jersey" and I think the one you get has to do with...
... Yes, this is a carrier issue. Each carrier can choose to send or not send the full caller ID info. Verizon Wireless chooses not to (although I wish they...
It's working now. But the time and temp graphic on the upper left says 77°f :P That can't be right. We also still don't have access on the Oakland system to...
... David, I KNOW that my own cell phones showed the names. Cingular asked me what I wanted them to display the account name or if I wanted the 'NJ Wireless'...
... My family, and a lot of the regular callers with wireless have either Cingular, T-Mobil or Sprint. All of these showed NAMES prior to the change to OV. If...
I don't think you are correct. The calling party's carrier only sends the phone number in the call setup data. The calling party's carrier does list the name...
There's a pretty in-depth explanation of why names don't show up on Caller ID from cell phones here: http://www.wifi-forum.com/wf/showthread.php?t=53293 In a...
Well, with Verizon POTS you're paying extra for the Caller ID in most cases. OV it's free. so you get what you're getting what you pay for. if you pony up the...
You'd think Verizon (POTS) would show Verizon Wireless callers by name. Instead I get Wireless Caller or New Jersey. And for what I'm paying for POTS...! ;-) ...
Chris (post below) has it right. It is a mobile carrier issue. Verizon Wireless does not share its customer names with any database services. Cingular and...
Probably not what you want to hear, but my family was very upset with OV when we tried it. Many problems, call quality being the major one. We went back to...
When I got rid of Verizon POTS about three months ago, it always showed our wireless Verizon Wireless IDs. We were an all-Verizon household until recently...
Just got home and my wife gave me the various message from tech support. Missed Ralph, will call him back tomorrow. Also, there was a truck in the area...
We hate it OV. People are always complaining they can't hear us or that we sound like a transformer. We used to call CV to see if they could fix it but...
... On the other hand, I've had OV for almost a year now, never had any problems with it. I use it for all my outgoing calls, for incoming and outgoing faxes,...
We've had Vonage for over 2 years now and very happy with it. Very few issues. Since I'm in NJ the price with taxes is $29.76/mo (yes I know more than OV). I...
