for caller ID identification, can you record who is calling or does the machine announce the caller?

It does both. But the announcement cn get somewhat annoying if you get lots of telemarketing calls. But you can set times to turn it off when it rings. But its a great phone and I loved once I figured out how to turn off the announcement. The caller ID also shows up on your Flat Screen if you are able to connect..we use Dish or Direct.

I gave the telephone set to a close friend after a few days with me, so, am awfully sorry I haven't tried all the features of the phone.

When a call comes in, the phone will announce a callers name if it is in your programmed contact list otherwise it announces the calling number. For missed calls the number is saved whether or not they leave a message until you erase it.

If you are subscribed to caller id, the name and number comes up on the screen.

I haven't found that particular option on this phone. The phone does have a voice caller ID so you'll know who is calling.

I know that when a call comes in, my phone is set up to ring 2wice, then it goes to answer machine, so caller can leave message. Now if caller wants to send fax, machine has a distinctive ring in which I know that the caller is sending a fax. I have an external answer machine ( At&t; answer machine ). So it works out fine in distinguishing a call or fax. I'm not sure what happens if someone sends a fax, and someone else calls at the same time to leave message

Well, I don't know about a caller id, but another phone or computer modem works in the other port so it logically indicates a caller id unit would..

I have my answering machine first in line and the call block computer is after the answering machine. Using only the A list the caller ID is displayed. Only A list callers ring everything else goes to the answering machine after 5 rings(that is what I set the answering machine to).

NO - there is no caller ID - I have the service, my other phones show it, and the batteries are in - there is no caller ID. I bought this based on the person who said it does have caller ID. It has CALL WAITING,it does not have Caller ID.

I have never experienced that event. However, I never got the machine to block numbers that were a nuisance. I found that having ID Caller on my phone to identify the caller. If it is someone/thing I do not know, I do not answer. Works every time!

Yes, like any other Caller ID appliance, new calls are tagged as NEW until you scan through them. If you want to blacklist a specific number, while you are viewing the number in the list, just press "BLACKLIST". I will typically "Google" the phone number (in the format xxx-xxx-xxxx) and if it comes up in 800notes.com or similar reporting sites, I will usually blacklist the caller depending on the reports from others.

No it is a vision caller ID. You can record on this phone and the answering machine is good.The only problem I have had is a horrible short in the headset cord which makes the call sound full of static.I'm sure if I replaced it though the phone would be fine again.

It has caller ID.....the number is displayed, and if the number is part of your contacts, the name is displayed.

Yes this phone does have caller announce. It can be turned off and on. It is very clear. The only thing is that it only announces what is available on the caller ID. For instance if a call comes in as a cell call it states that it is a cell call. Now at this point (I just thought of it) I am unaware if you have programmed in someones name if it still says "cell call"or if it goes by what you programmed into your phone book for that number. Interesting thought ... more on my to do list, lol. But I hope I have covered your question.

It does not announce who the caller is. You need to look at your phone to see specifically who is calling.

When a phone call comes in, it speaks just the name you see on caller ID, not the number. It does this in-between rings.

Hi Jenny- If you do not have caller-ID service from your phone provider, the recorder cannot capture the incoming phone number or name, but it will still capture the outbound (dialed) number. An RJ-11 plug and "Y" connector are provided for connection to the outside line jack. -DLI

Yes, it does have the voice announced caller ID. It is limited to the base station as well

No, it just shows the caller ID on the LCD display. It's a nice phone system. The only thing I wish it had is a battery for times when the electricity goes out.
