Caller ID with Privacy +™ - V8.0

Product Description

End-users have the ability to:

Turn Caller ID with Privacy + On and Off.
Establish a Privileged Caller Code.

Calls that have name and number available display on Caller ID display units as usual.

Unidentified calls marked Private that unblock will display their name and telephone number on Caller ID display units.

A distinctive ring (short, short) will advise the Privacy + end-user of an audibly identified call.

Unidentified calls with a recorded name will display as "Privacy +" in the name field, and "000-000-0000" in the number field or no information in the number field, on Caller ID display units. The display may vary depending on the end-user's brand of Caller ID unit.

End-users subscribing to Caller ID with Privacy + have the option of accepting or rejecting the audibly identified calls:

If the call is rejected, the caller will be advised that the called party is not available and will be sent to voice mail or an answering service if the end-user has a messaging service.
The call cannot be sent to an answering machine.

If the end-user's telephone is not answered, the caller will be advised that the party could not be reached and to try again.

If the end-user has a messaging service, the call will be sent to a messaging service or an answering machine.

A caller from blocked (marked Private) or unknown/out of area hears an announcement indicating that the end-user does not accept unidentified calls.
