Re: [General] PAYG Providers who Populate LIDB/CNAM Database?

said by Davesworld:

Actually, most people's mobile numbers do send out CNAM and can be seen on incoming calls while using a provider such as landline, voip etc that provides incoming CNAM.
No, I have a Verizon POTS business landline, and we get LOTS of incoming calls from people on mobile phones.

Almost NONE of these cellphone calls show up with proper CNAM. Instead, we usually see something like "Cellphone NJ" or just "New Jersey".

By far the biggest mobile provider here is Verizon Wireless, and they do not provide outbound CNAM.

Now, AT&T Wireless generally offers outbound CNAM, but they are relatively small in the market here.

We've wondered for a hundred years if the evening meal is "dinner" or "supper".

Now, we have another dilemma.

Is it "mobile" or "wireless" or "cellular" ??

Or all three?

"My Verizon Wireless cellphone provides good mobile service."
