[Rogers Wireless] Questions about Iphone

Hey guys, let me run this down for you.

I want to get the 16 GIG Black iphone, with the data plan + Caller id etc, This comes to a total of...
$299 = Iphone
$80/mo = Plan (For 3 years)

So, I just want to know how much you guys pay per month for your iphone. *I also have a general question about Caller ID*. I am 15, not old enough to sign a 3 year contract myself, this contract comes with Call display. My friend who recently got a phone with rogers had his parents co-sign it, and when he calls people it shows his moms name. *I am wondering if i have caller display, and my parents sign it, is it possible for me to change the caller ID to my name?* Thanks!

Mac OS X (10.5.6)

my dear boi,
caller ID is a default feature on cell Phones
and when you friend receives your call it will show your name on his iPhone
bcoz your friend dude saved under your sweet name
under your phone number on his contact list
and make sure that your parents sign for the contacts
Thanks and kisses from mommy
😀

Lol sweet response, but did not really answer.

I mean if i call someone randomly who has call id/display (dont know what the correct name is) and i have it, i want it to show my number / name. My friend who called my house randomly one day when he first got his phone, showed his mothers name.

When calling from a cell phone to another cell phone, the name shown on the person's cell phone will be the name the person has for your contact info in their phone's address book. The iPhone includes a Show My Caller ID option - on or off. If on when calling another cell phone and the person's cell phone does not have your name and phone number in their phone's address book, your phone number will be shown only.

Calling a landline (that has a caller ID display) with an iPhone that has Show My Caller ID on should show your number only - at least this is how it works in the U.S.

I see, well thanks just one more question. What if you are calling someone for the first time and they dont have your info. *I am not taking about if they have you saved in their directory,* but just a random call.

In that case, I believe your parents can ask Rogers to make the number private but I am not sure if that can only be done with land line #'s.....if it can't be done...then if the person has not saved your number in their contact list, it will definetely show the name of the person who signed the contract.

Hey there, to clearly answer your question...Even if your mom signs the contract she is just the "account holder" there is a section in the program we use to put "user names" which is the person using the phone. You can actually put it as anything you want. For example: Your name or Crazyman if you'd like. We do require a last name initial so if you are changing it to something like crazy man it would have to be along the lines of crazyman A...hope this helps

$80 a month isn't bad.
I pay $100 for pretty much unlimited everything.

Ok sir

here is more info
you can have control of what shows up on any Rogers customer’s caller ID,
as the guy said "crazy man"!!!! I bet you can have it!
as long as the receiving unit-phone/device- supports Rogers caller ID profile!
for others like one of ur friend who is with Fido-dido
it will show up as just your cell number!
is that make more sense?
