Call History (Caller ID)

NOTES ABOUT CALLER ID & CALL WAITING CALLER ID

These are subscription services, provided by most regional telephone service providers. You must subscribe to these services to get the benefits of these features. If you do not subscribe to Caller ID services, you can still use your 20-2432 and the other features it offers.

Due to regional incompatibilities, Caller ID information may not be available for every call you receive. In addition, the calling party may intentionally block their name and phone number from being sent.

Your 20-2432 is capable of displaying the name and/or number of the party calling before you answer the phone (Caller ID). It is also capable of displaying Caller ID information in conjunction with a Call Waiting alert signal (Call Waiting Caller ID).
