That's such common problem, and Google directs you to this site where a number of us have this phone! If I could find my manual I would scan it in to avoid you paying 4.99 from sites that sell it!

You can only operate the answerphone from the main handset, not the slave (d505).

To listen to messages you press the top left 'tape' symbol. The display changes to "ANS MAC" you then use the words under the buttons to operate the answerphone ie "2" for play.

I don't recall ever using a PIN - is this for collecting messages via calling in remotely? You can set one using Menu - Ans Menu - ok - PIN code

I can't test as my NTL phone line doesn't work...

Ok how long has Great Yarmouth had Caller ID?

Phoned for the 6th time to complain about a balls up an NTL engineer did in the green cab down the bottom of the road (he was instaling cable for someone else on the street 2 weeks ago, went in the cab like a bull in a china shop and pulled me piggin wire out for me phone

)

Anyway, I got put through to a spot on geezer called Terry who finally fixed a call divert that was placed on my line to divert calls to my Sipgate number whilst i was waiting for the repair but it stuck on for two weeks

Anyway, to get back to the point, he was doing some tests at my local NTL exchange and I said to him could he check if Yarmouth was enabled for Caller ID yet he said "Yes", at this point i`m in denial

Turns out it frigin is

Can someone shed any light to when this was enabled?

Nice to see NTL still upgrading their network (albeit very slowly).

I'm afraid I can't confirm this 'cos we went back to BT months ago. Main reason - so that we could get caller-ID

I'm in Warrington, I just called NTL and CLI is not available for me.

Anyone know if Lincoln has CLI? I've just switched to NTL and I've been with BT for the last year and had it there OK. Before that I lived in Cyprus for 4 years and even they had it no problem. I really miss CLI.

THat'd be because it's neither standard nor free iirc.

R NTL actually botthering to upgrade any more - been with CWC/NTL for nearly 10 years now ... still no CLI ... should I just give up hope... such a basic service... ( so tired of seeing it in the pricing but can never get it .. )

c'mon NTL.. if your charging for it ... then business case must be there

Hi, do you know what type of phone he has? I live nearby in Bedford and have never been able to make caller ID work, tho NTL swear its available. My understanding is that caller ID on cable does not work with many types of handset.... (I tried with Philips Zenia and nada, am about to buy new phone but having difficulty identifying which will work propertly with cable).
Thanks!
