Glossary: Caller ID

Ever had one of those calls where you just wish you knew who was calling before you picked up the phone? Well that’s what Caller ID is for! With caller ID the number of the person who is calling you is displayed on your caller ID display, allowing you to check it before you answer it. Most modern cordless phones come with a display that will display caller IDs. Otherwise you are able to purchase them separately. No more answering pesky calls from your ex or mother-in-law!
