Caller Display...
 

Can anyone tell me if this item would work with a virgin media phone line?

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BT-Caller-ID-D...3A1|240%3A1318

I don't have an answerphone service with vm but i was thinking of adding caller display but before i do i am looking to buy a caller display unit and if compatible was thinking of getting one of the above.

Cheers

Caller ID is enabled in some areas, but not in all. Customer Services may be able to tell you,

Like Stuart says, you need to look into getting caller ID BEFORE you buy a unit like that, cos i might not be available.

I can get caller display, i have already looked into it, i just was not sure if the item on ebay would be any use on a vm phone line.

There's no guarantees either way but, given that it's a BT device, I suspect it won't work.

More info in section 6 of this Caller ID FAQ:

OK thanks for the advice and link, i guess no caller display for me.

For the sake of 99p I'd have a stab,it may just work!

Re: Caller Display...
 

You have to ask Virgin to enable caller display and it is not free anyway and you can then see the callers number in most handsets with screens.

I have a BT phone and caller display works fine on VM

Re: Caller Display...
 

works for me.;)

Re: Caller Display...
 

Great, thanks for letting me know. :D

I'm heading for ebay to grab one then. :tu:

Re: Caller Display...
 

Lets know if it works!!!

Re: Caller Display...
 

I have caller display on bt phones works fine

Re: Caller Display...
 

There's no reason why it shouldn't work just because it's a BT device, I have BT and C&W phones with caller display and both operate fine on a VM phone line.

Well i had it delivered this morning and i can tell you it works with both caller display and 1571. :D
