I have the caller ID feature on my landline, but sometimes it doesnt work......
I have a Siemens S685ip phone with a voipfone and sipgate phone number too, but caller display works from them every time.
I have tested calling my landline today from my mobile a few times it displaid the number and a few times it just came up on the screen as EXTERNAL FOR FIXED LINE.
Anyone have any ideas why?
When I press 1471 after the call it gives the number?
Thanks

Have you tried a different caller display unit? It's also worth plugging directly into the test socket as there could be interference from other equipment.

Not all calls will show depending on the caller. Often switchboards from organisations like hospitals will not show a number and depending on your equipment overseas calls will either not show or show as international. If you've blocked receiving calls from withheld numbers then the caller will get a message to say that you do not accept such calls.

So you are taking a chance blocking calls, although some I dont care. Mother in law comes up as withheld
JoJo do any landlines show international, I know Mobiles do

AFAIK they don't show the number, but some equipment displays it as international, unless there's some equipment out there that does.

Mine just came up International, out of area - didnt like my police type siren and hung up, 1471 came up as number unavailable unable to return call
My problem is two family in Australia, one in New Zealand, two in France and one in the US, so no way an I block International

I moved from BT to Plus net on 19th December and my caller id was working fine up until then. I have been away pretty much since as soon as I moved the phone to plus net so I assume my called id hasn't worked since day 1. is this normal for people to move to Plus Net and caller id not to work?
I have included a screen shot as it shows it as selected
Anyway I have just rung and logged a call (3/1/2012 @ 11:50). I spoke to a nice chap called (it was my dogs name - cant mention his real name due to forum rules ), he has informed me that to get it to work that he has to turn the fucntion off and then turn it back on again in 24 hours. How odd, I hope it fixes it.

However I am just getting on the phone to see what the heck is going on with regard to with holding my number. I was assured by James Bailey yesterday that this would be sorted as a matter of urgency as it is so very important. This should be with held for all calls but allowing us to show this number to family using the 1470 prefix.
