FollowMe Call Display Problem

[FONGO_steve]

Don't know what you guys did, but CallerID magically started working again today (for direct as well as forwarded calls)!!!

Thanks.

We didn't change anything - so it's likely one of the carriers has found and fixed any problems they may have been encountering!

Can others confirm this too?

I can say follow me works now on my fido iphone all the time. Looks like its been fixed

Can others confirm this too?

Yes, it works now (rogers) for both direct and forwarded calls.

Yep it's working on my rogers iphone as well.

I would agree. Outgoing caller ID is now working with my Rogers phone again. This occurred about two days ago. Nothing was changed on my side to get this to work. Let's hope this continues to work.

What other changes have you seen with caller-ID recently?

Oh yeah....the other thing I noticed is that my FPL caller id used to show like this:
416477XXXX
but since recently it shows like this:
+1416477XXXX

I know for a fact that if your caller id shows as +1XXXXXXXXXXX rogers will not recognize it (if it's your favourite number, you will be billed for the call).

Just placed 2 calls, one to rogers cell phone (not iphone) - no caller ID at all. The other one to Telus cell phone, caller id shows fine. Also forwarded call shows no caller id on rogers. Obviously rogers is either messing something up (what's new!) or it just does not like the new format of the caller ID FPL is sending.

Me too I noticed the same thing.
My Asterisk box sees "416477XXXX" instead of "+1416477XXXX".
My Rogers cell phone show "Unknown Number" when it receives the forwarded call.
If I programatically add a "1", from my Asterisk box, in front of the CallerID number of all incoming calls from FPL before forwarding to my Rogers cell phone, it will recognize it.
