Caller ID on BT Studio 3100 cordless phone?

[uncorked]

I bought a BT Studio 3100 phone over the weekend. There is no caller id appearing when the phone rings. All that appears is "Call". Do I need to contact eircom to get this problem sorted or is there something obvious that I'm missing?

Cheers

You normally have to get your service provider to enable caller id before a caller id phone can display incoming numbers.

All sorted, thanks for that

How? Did you contact them to get caller id enabled or something else?

I rang eircom and got caller id activated

Anyone know where I can buy a caller id box as I have just a standard eircom phone, but have the Caller ID service activated and would like to be able to use it.

They seem to be hard to find, if you know a place for sure would be nice to know.
Thanks.

I have one spare that I no longer need. I'll PM you in case it's of any use to you (for free).

Power City 'had' them too if you're in Dublin.
