Did you change carriers? A lot of the VoIP carriers like vonage and magic jack will only give you the telephone number on caller id, but not the name.

I have magic jack now and they call that "caller id", but having moved from a carrier that had name attachment i assumed all caller id's had name and phone number both...but not so

Using the Caller ID and Redial Lists
Caller ID (CID) is a service available from your telephone provider that shows the phone number (and sometimes the caller's name) of incoming calls. Contact your telephone provider for more information.
Caller ID list



Redial list



When a call comes in, the phone displays the number and name (if available) of the caller.
The phone saves the information for the last 30 received calls to the

CID list.
When it's in standby, the handset shows how many calls came in since the last time you checked the CID list.


Each handset remembers the last 5 numbers you dialed on it. The redial list is separate for each handset.

If people have thier number blocked you will not see who it is. Most cell phones with "caller ID" will only ID the numbers that you have in your contact list. In other words' if the person is in your contacts they should show up on the screen by Name. Try it with a call from a contact. There is a selction in SETTING to HIDE your number. Again / if they have this selected you can't see thier number.

To set Caller ID you need to save the persons name and number within the PHONE MEMORY, once saved then go to 'My Photos' and select appropriate photo and select 'Options' then '5.Set As/Caller ID' then search for relative number on the PHONE MEMORY once found confirm it by pressing left soft key which will save picture to number.

Caller ID with Call Waiting is available by subscription from your Telephone provider. With this service, you will be able to view incoming caller information while on a call with another user.

This will allow you the ability to select to talk to this user and put your existing party on hold or make the decision to ring them back.

But, you must contact your Telephone provider and subscribe to the service.

Remember, If you subscribe to Caller ID from your phone company, your phone will show you the caller's phone number and name (if available) whenever a call comes in. If you subscribe to both Call Waiting and Caller ID, the phone also shows you the name and the number of any call that comes in while you're on the line.

Some telephones, just like your cell phone, will show the caller-id name you have programmed into the phone-book memory. If this is the case, then the solution is an easy one, just change name yourself.
If this happens on every caller-id phone or box in your house, then you should call your phone company as there CNAME database might be corrupt.
However if this only happens on the GE phone you mentioned and there is no phonebook memory in it, then I suggest exchanging the phone.
