It depends how old the BT phone is and also the switch type installed at your franchise. I think all of the latest BT phones are dual compatible, i.e. Caller ID will work with System X and also Bellcore Caller ID on the DMS switch.
As you appear to be ex-NTL I cannot tell you which switch type you have in Lincoln; there is information available VM's website which tells you the switch type for all ex-TW areas.
