I think all of the sets announce caller Id--I disabled the feature early on and I think I had to do it at each of the four units individually.

Yes it does have talking caller id but you can turn it off if you don't like it.

Yes. It actually "talks" the name on the caller id. (Sometimes kind of annoying -"Call from cell phone,etc") Also, A message shows on my television screen, (although this is probably a feature from Comcast)

I actually like this feature as I know who is calling before picking up the handset. To answer your question if the answering system is set to two rings the unit does not announce the caller. If "Toll saver" feature is on, the unit does not announce the caller. The unit does announce the caller if the caller information is stored in the phonebook. I hope this helps.

yes you can, you just go to menu and select initial settings, scroll to talking caller id and push select, then select either on or off. you can have one on and the others off, its up to you on a per handset basis. It really is a nice phone and it goes all the way to my neighbors;(we live in a trailer park) without crackeling or any type of distortion. :) hope this helped!

per the handbook (pg 34), it states: If you do not want the first ring from a number on the call block list to sound, turn the first ring setting to "Off". The default setting is "On". So to answer your question, yes it can be done. Also for any other question, here is the URL from the Panasonic site for the manual. http://service.us.panasonic.com/OPERMANPDF/KXTG6841-MUL.PDF

There is the capability of silencing the ring tone, however,one must reactivate the ring tone manually. No know call blocking feature. One may set the ring tone to off for callers that block their number(s). Hope this helps. Overall we are pleased with this product.

I am now on my second at&t phone set and once again I have a battery issue which made me replace the previous set in the first place! I enjoyed its functions but now I have decided to purchase a different phone set to replace it and will go with a different company this time!!! but yes you can silence the caller id by going into menu and select caller id and choose on or off to both the base or handset. if I did not have this battery issue I would highly recommend this phone.......

Yes. Menu, #, 1,6, 2,,,O for off. My question to you is:Why did you buy this specific unit if you didn't want talking caller I'd?
1149519
Yes it does, and that feature can be turned off if you don't want the announcement.

Hi Erick. In fact, I understood that it had this feature. But I found problems with it. I still look for something to set up the feature, but I couldn't found it yet. But it says that has Caller Id.Good luck!

The Caller id is displayed on the receiver when the phone rings. You do not have to pick up the phone to see the callerid. The caller id is on the outside of the receiver which displays while the phone is hung up. Once you pick up the phone, the call is connected as it is not like a cordless phone.
