Outgoing Call Display

TMAN100 — Wed, 05 Jan 2022 16:46:57 GMT

How do I change my outgoing call display from my phone number to a name?

People don't want to answer when it's just a phone number they don't recognize.

@TMAN100 People should add your phone number into their Contact list and give your name to it.

It only shows number. The people you contact would have to put your number in their phone book for your name to appear.

@TMAN100 PM 's outgoing call display is your number. The only for other people to see your name is if its on their contacts list. Welcome to the community. Stay safe.

Did you just get a new number? You may have to ask to add you to their phone for the future. This is more of a phone issue then a PM issue from my vantage point.

There's no such option. Your only options are to show your phone number or not show your phone number. This is a network function and can be set from your phone. The phone number dispaly for outgoing calls is turned on by default. it can be disabled per call by using #31# before the phone number being dialed.
