Quote from: Simon on Yesterday at 12:14:44I don't know if this is significant but I've just called my landline from my mobile using +44 and the correct name came up on the caller display.  This is on a Gigaset DECT C570HX.

This suggests that my landline displays the correct name from a +44 number, and it actually displays the number as 077xx xxxxxxx, so it's performing a conversion somewhere. 
Regretably my mobile just comes up as +44!

Quote from: nowster on Yesterday at 14:00:14Even Andrews & Arnold is cheaper (£1.72/month) than IDNet for this service, which is unusual.

I've just had a quick look at A&A, and am I right in that the £1.72 doesn't include call costs?  At 1.5p per minute for landlines and 4p per min to mobile, that could soon add up if you use it regularly.  I'd argue that £9 per month from IDNet, inclusive of all calls, is reasonably competitive, obviously depending on how much you use the service.

Thanks, worth looking as if I move it will need to be a more customer centered provider then IDNet who have been appalling. There are a few firms selling phones and it will be interesting if a phone such as the ones IDNet thing needed actually exit!
