VoIP Caller ID
Setting a different Presentation Number
On the Control Pages there is some control over the number that is presented when you make a call out. Normally it is the number you are using, but this can be changed.
Customers are able to pick another number that is on the same account as the presentation number.
We can also set up a secondary presentation number as well which is allowed from your equipment.
Alternatively, staff can set something other than your phone number here. There is a one-off charge for this and we'll need paperwork to prove the number is yours.
Contact Sales for more details.
Setting the Presentation Name
You can set the presentation name (which in general will only be sent to other AAISP VoIP customers) on the 'Outgoing' tab of the control panel.
Testing the presentation
Aside from calling your own phone, we have some special codes that can be used for testing to see if the presentation number is as you expect:
- 17070 or *104 reads back the presentation number
- and *107 to read back the VoIP account you're calling from
Calling from Withheld
If you want to hide your presentation number (i.e. set it to withheld) on a permanent basis, tick the Withhold box. To hide it for just one call, prefix the called number with 141.
