I finally got a number! It's suburban Chicago Sprint (now T-Mobile). 

I guess that kind of throws the rural carrier idea out the window. 








Apparently a non-zero number of people are expecting caller ID name to work on 
their mobile devices, but there are clearly caveats to that.

Subject: [VoiceOps] Malformed Caller ID 


Have any of you noticed an increase in customer complaints of malformed caller 
ID? 


We do a test call out as the customer, whether it's to one of our cell phones 
or one of the incumbent's POTS lines. Everything shows up as expected. The 
number is formatted correctly. The Caller ID name is formatted correctly. 




However, we're getting customer complaints that the caller ID is saying Japan 
(we have nothing to do with Japan), United States, blank, or some other 
combination. We're just not able to confirm that. 


Of course customers are reluctant to tell us what the numbers are of the remote 
parties having these issues, so we can't really look for common denominators.
