Caller ID
My past wireless service only showed me on calls to others as "Wireless Caller". Other callers to me would only show their number, unless they were in my phone's address book.
With Cingular, I'm seeing my full name on caller ID (when I call home), and I don't like that. Is that they way things are now with all cell phones? Just advanced technology?
I talked to Cingular about just putting my first name initial instead of full name, they said they would try and see what happens; it didn't work. Should I ask again?
Anybody have a suggestion on how I can NOT have my name appear with Caller ID?
Thanks in advance. 🙂

yes, call customer care or go into a cingualr office and have them put on your account caller id block. that way nothing comes up.

If you want to, call me at my store and I can add that code for you.

OK, thanks. I'll take you up on that offer if I can't get it done when I call Cingular. I have some other things to clarify with them. 🙂

you can block your name altogether. just ask to have callerid name block put on your account. there is no cost for it.
...
I just got to thinking, won't this block my incoming calls, too?
I just want to block my name, and guess I'd have to do the #31# before each call?
Maybe they can just do a name change, like SBC has on my landline. 😉

Incomming and out going caller ID should be two different features. you can block your ID going out without turning off other people's comming in.
...
I just called and had it done; I even have the option of just blocking the name, just the number, or both. Cool! I never had this with Verizon. 🤣

When I call my home with my cell, I am still seeing my name AND number.
But when I called a friend the other day, she said I came across as Unidentified (name) and with my number showing.
Is this possible? If so, why am I still being ID'd at home? Change was to be 72 hours after my request.
