My Panasonic TG8022 cordless shows the caller by name, providing the number is in the memory.
I went for talktalk Essentials for bband 6.9megs (LLU) and free phonecalls, except national daytime and international.
£17.74 pm including the landline. Suits my simple requirements!

'f2s' bband was crap service and, with BT landline, was £26 pm. BT kept ringing to get me back and couldn't understand why I left them! They've finally got the message as I've had no more hassle from them.

Virginmeda are rolling out caller display network wide in 2010
Wirral switch WL1 is already enabled, so you may be able to get caller ID activated on your line like I have done. Phone 150.

When I was on the Virgin media website yesterday trying to see if I could get the same package Im on now with Sky cheaper from Virgin, Caller Display was £2 per month.

and by the way, Sky was cheaper in the end and I get more channels, granted Virgins 10meg broadband is 10meg and on Sky I only get 6meg on an upto 20meg package but its unlimited downloads with no fair usage policy or traffic shaping.

I'm on Virgin 50mb and I get a constant 48mb from it, I get my telly through Sky because you get more channels and far more HD channels. If price is your main concern get a package from 1 provider but if you want quality then you have to mix and match, it's personal preference.
As per the start point of this topic, I had caller ID in my old house in Tranmere but when I moved to Bebington I was told it wasn't available here. I will be made up if it is being rolled out across the whole system soon, I miss it.

Hi Croc,

If your landline is supplied by Virginmedia over cable then YES you can have "Caller ID" added as an option. Phone 150 from your Virgin landline. grin
