Caller ID posts incorrect name with number What

To save caller ID with a name in Panasonic KX-AT7730, you need to follow these steps:

Press the "Program" button on the phone.
Dial "9" to enter the "Caller ID" setting.
Dial "1" to enter the "Caller ID Memory" setting.
Dial the memory location number (0-99) where you want to save the caller ID and name.
Enter the caller's phone number using the keypad.
Press the "#" button to move to the next field.
Enter the caller's name using the keypad (use the alphanumeric keys to enter letters).
Press the "#" button again to save the entry.
Repeat steps 4-8 for each caller ID you want to save.

Note: Caller ID service must be enabled on your phone line for this feature to work. Also, make sure you have enough memory locations available in your phone's memory to save new caller IDs.

If the display never shows caller ID info, check with your phone service provider to be sure caller ID is active on your account. If the display sometimes shows only number instead of caller ID, write down the number. Then go to www.okcaller.com and search the number. Some business names will show up. Often you will at least find out what city & state the caller is from.

Show my caller ID"
Press Phone.
Press the menu icon.
Press Settings.
Press More settings.
Press Show my caller ID.
Press Show number to turn on caller identification.
Press Hide number to turn off caller identification.
Press the Home key to return to the home screen.

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

use this link to get the phone user manual. In page 28 it has the details of the Caller ID's. Post us back if your problem not solved

Since CID display to the phone comes from the Panasonic phone SYSTEM, you might try looking inside the cabinet to see if it has a caller ID card. The part ends in 93.

It also requires some programming. If you post your model number, I might have a CID card if yours is missing.

Hi

Thanks for using FixYa. I think you have stored more than 100 Caller ID messages and hence the caller ID is not showing on Uniden Tru8888. In the following cases the caller ID will not be shown-

If you answer a call before the Caller ID message is received (for example, before the second ring), the Caller ID message will not appear.

When the call is received via a telephone company that does not offer Caller ID service, the caller’s phone number and name does not appear. (This includes some international calls.)

When the call is via a private branch exchange (PBX), the caller's phone number and name may not appear.

You may receive any one of the following messages:

When a private name is received; Private Name
When a private number is received; Private Number
When a unknown name is received; Unknown Name
When a unknown number is received; Unknown Number
When invalid data is received; Incomplete Data

The Caller ID list stores information for incoming calls - even unanswered calls. You can store up to 100 Caller ID messages and phonebook entries (including Speed Dials) for each handset and the base. You can view the Caller ID list through the handset or base during a call or when the phone is in standby mode.

Memory locations for Caller ID messages and Phonebook entries (including Speed Dials) are common, you can store up to all 100 entries for each handset and the base. Caller ID messages are not stored when you have 100 phonebook entries. When you have stored a total of 100 phonebook entries and Caller ID messages, the oldest Caller ID message is overwritten.

Please do rate the solution and revert for further assistance.
