If you use it to Bluetooth to your cell, it will get the contact Dara from your cell, just as it appears on your cell.

In order to have Caller ID, you must have a phone which supports the technology. THIS phone does support the technology, however, the SERVICE of Caller ID is up to your phone company (AT&T;, Southern Bell, Comcast, etc.) Personally I have Comcast and with my service I have call forwarding, Caller ID, etc. I pay for a package that has that service, but could have the phone (supporting Caller ID) without ordering the service, then nothing would appear on the phone. SO, yes and no, my comcast doesn't charge me extra for the service, but AT&T; used to charge me for it. That is really a question you should ask your phone service provider.

They sell you more data, it seems to go in $10 increments. The data rates are listed at freedompop.com. They push "premium" accounts with monthly charges and more data, but they don't push too hard. I use it only occasionally, when I travel. Every few months, I get a $10 charge, so very much cheaper than $59 every month I used to pay to Verizon. It seems like it works many places I try it - I don't think any cell data plans work everywhere. I am very pleased with it.

Hi: I too have Xfinity. What you end up with is two caller IDs; one on the Digitone and one on Xfinity. Works perfectly. No to worry.

That was so long ago, I don't remember. What I do remember was that it took at least 5 hours to activate the phone and I ended up sending it back and cancelling the service. They do have an 800 number that would probably give you the answer. Also, the advertised monthly rate does not include all kinds of taxes, which increased the price considerably and was another reason I cancelled. Hope this is helpful to you.

I believe that there will be a $2 or $3 monthly fee for the t mobile cell service in addition to whatever you and the control panel use to contact each other. I have had mine less then a month so far, so I can not verify yet about the monthly fee for the cell service.

Just had live chat with a VerizonWireless rep. My old flip phone bit the dust. I said I was being given a Samsung Convoy and where to activate. (I want a flip phone, don't need all the bells & whistles.) Had no hassles about my decision & got info I needed. Just add to existing contract no prob, supposedly.

This is exactly what I have been wondering, do you not receive data charges because it's an unlocked phone? My sister was given an iPhone as a gift and didn't use any data, she only ever went online when she was connected to wifi, and a data charge was added to the bill because it was a smartphone. Because this is an unlocked phone, will AT&T; just... not know? I don't know much about unlocked phones :(

This phone worked so horribly for me that I never was able to make a successful call. It dropped in and out constantly and had to be replaced. In short, I never got far enough along with it to be able to answer. Sorry. If you are through Net 10 and have any problems, make sure you cancel, cancel and then cancel your service. They are STILL charging me for a one month service I bought back in September to sell a car and didn't want to give out my regular cell. I do not want to cancel my card, but they bill little charges, like a dollar, $ 3 etc every month or so, just enough to drive you crazy and not enough to justify cancelling a card you have auto draws etc set up on. UGG!!! Good Luck!!!! This phone worked so horribly for me that I never was able to make a successful call. It dropped in and out constantly and had to be replaced.

Connecting a fax is the least of your concerns. Verizon is CRAP. I had NOT ONE DAY of caller ID during my two year contract. Verizon gives you ABSOLUTELY NO SERVICE. I switched to ATT for the same price. Plugged their home phone connect box in the outlet. Five minutes later the phone rang with caller ID. STAY AWAY FROM Verizon, PERIOD!!!

You can enter the info and see if it let's you before you pay. I did that once with a couple of phones to see if they would work.

thanks for the info, but it acts as though I am just another caller, when I get to voice mail...when do you add the pin code to get access to voicemail??? I am a newbie to Tracfone, and really like this phone...but have always had a phone, where accessing voicemail was free and easy.TIA

nope and that's why I returned it. You still have to have monthly service, nowhere in there a does it say that. I fully installed the entire system and could not get to work with my phone until I called them and they tried to sign me up for the monthly fee. I sent it back and Amazon refunded me my money after reading their ad. Sorry.

It is my understanding that this device receives calls from presto and does not do the calling. Therefore no charge to the user for phone calls. Very similar to sending a fax to someone.

Hey, mine worked great for about two months caller ID, phone calls and music. Now not working, it's seems really hit or miss. I know a few guys that it wouldn't work for either. If get for a cheap price like I did go for it, if not I'd try something else. Just my two cents.

They came out with a new LTE sim card, this sim card might not work, go to Lycamobile website for more information. you can definitely pay as you go, you can recharge from their website, just activate the sim card and your are good to go, you can also make international call with it

I'm no longer with Verizon, but if memory serves me correctly it works with all Verizon plans. I was led to believe that it works off the cell tower in your area. The offer was sign up for the device, get it free with a $20 connection fee - which is why I even responded to this item for sale - why buy it if you can go to a Verizon store & get it free?

These sim cards arent active. Once you receive them you have to add money and call the company to activate them. Im currently using the $25 plan. Unlimited calls and sms/mms. If you want to use the web I believe its starts at $40 for everything.
