It's worthwhile checking that your local equipment can cope with your chosen tag. For example a phone with a seven segment display will have difficulty with some alphabetic characters, and some phones can only display 12 characters (and a typical UK phone number is 11 characters) so you'll lose some characters.
'''Special, "unsupported" tag feature:'''
If you forward a VoIP number to another number such as your mobile (using the Also Rings), the CLI presented to your mobile will be the callers number. You won't know if this is a redirected call or not. There is a hidden feature where by we can add a prefix to the CLI.
In the 'tag' box, set it to N= (e.g. 2=), then the CLI will be sent as +11N (in our example, +112) followed by the number calling. This way you will be able to tell that the incoming call is one being redirected from your VoIP number and you still get the CLI of the caller.▼
