If you subscribe to alphanumeric (name
&number) Caller ID service, the calling party's name and phone number (when available) will be displayed on the LCD screen while the phone is ringing.
If you subscribe to numeric (number only) Caller ID service, the calling party's phone number (when available) will be displayed on the LCD screen while the phone is ringing.
CALL WAITING CALLER ID (TYPE II CID)
Your VTech VT 1920c cordless phone is also capable of displaying Caller ID information in connection with a Call Waiting signal. If you are on a call, and receive a Call Waiting alert signal, the LCD will display the name and/or number (when available) of the party trying to reach you. As above, subscription to Call Waiting ID service through your local phone company is required in order to utilize this feature.
A WORD ABOUT CALLER ID - CID 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 & phone number from being sent.
NOTE:
You must be in an area where CID service is available and you must subscribe to it to use this feature.
If you do not subscribe to the CID service, the phone will still operate normally except that the CID information is not received or displayed.
Receiving and Storing Calls
This unit receives and displays all CID information, the caller’s telephone number, the callers name and the exact date and time of the call.
The phone sequentially numbers these call records and retains them in the unit’s CID memory for later review. These call record numbers are displayed as the first two digits in the display. The unit can store up to 50 numbers in its memory.
Once the CID memory is full, any new call forces a deletion of the oldest call record.
DIALING FROM CID MEMORY
NOTE:
Only the last 7 digits of any number are displayed when dialing from CID memory.
For example, when you press and hold the 7 
key to view the phone number, you would see the following:
