caller id on tv

See who's calling before you get up from your favorite easy chair! Caller ID information will appear on the television screen.

To Use Caller ID on TV:

  1. When you receive a call, wait until your telephone completes the first ringing signal.
  2. The telephone number calling you in telephone records will automatically appear on your television screen.
  3. If you choose to answer the call, the number will remain on the TV screen until you or the caller hangs up.

NOTE: Only works with FairPoint Digital TV.

If a letter "P" or "Private" appears on your display after the first ring, the caller may have blocked the display of their name and number by pressing *82 before placing the call.

If "unknown name", "unknown number", "out of area", or "0" appears, the caller is in an area that does not support Caller ID.
