All ex-Telewest areas have Caller ID, some ex-NTL areas do not. If Caller ID is available in your area then most if not all current equipment should be compatible.

I haven't had time to compare the old and new intructions for Call Waiting but, if you're quick, both are available for download at http://www.virginmedia.com/help/telephone/ along with a brief summary of how to determine if you have been 'upgraded' yet.

I'm on a Nortel DMS here in Aylesbury (ex-NTL, ex-CWC, ex-Bell Cablemedia) which is why the Caller Id. facility, although promised for years, has not worked so far. We live in hope that I may find a compatible 'phone now which will not only enable Caller Id. but also text messaging.
