Re: Caller ID
 

I did my 6 monthly check yesterday via the upgrade your services page on the website and was stunned to have my order for Caller display accepted - even more stunned to receive an email this morning at 07:30 saying it had been activated.
Totally unsurpised though when I called CS tonight to ask why it wasn't working to be told it's not available !!!! - the sales team had however managed to get it onto the billing system despite there being no chance of receiving the service.
Does anyone know when the DB1 switch is being upgraded to support CLID ??

Anyone know if its available in the PO12 Gosport area???

I just phoned CS as I am in Watford and have been waiting for years for Caller ID. I was told, yet again, it is not available here. Would be interested to see if yours does work though.

I have just this morning spoken to customer services about CLI for KT17 area - in addition to telling me it still wasn't available they also told me that Virgin was looking to do away with CLI altogether so I was unlikely to get it ever.

Re: Caller ID
 

Still, it seems a bizarre thing to say that they may be doing away with CLI!!!

I was surprised to find out that my brother's phone line with UPC/Chorus/NTL in Dublin comes down the coax along with the TV and Broadband signals. I'm not talking about the Siamese twin cable used by VM with coax and four-pair telephone cable joined together but an actual digital signal on the coax that goes through a converter box which you plug your analogue lines into. That technology may do away with traditional exchange equipment altogether at some point although I suspect that it's a hybrid set-up at the moment.
