Does the Magic Jack Show Phone Call Information on the Phone?

MagicJack maximizes personal connections by saving you money in phone bills.

The promise of a great flat price on home phone service has caused thousands of consumers to try MagicJack, a small USB device that plugs into a home computer on one end and a standard phone jack on the other.

Inbound Calls

MagicJack is able to display the caller ID of most people calling you. The caller ID of some inbound international calls may not display.

Outbound Calls

When you dial out using MagicJack, those receiving your call can see your telephone number if they have Caller ID. However, only the number will show up unless your name was saved on their phone as a contact.

Some Exceptions

MagicJack requires a standard USB connection from your phone to your computer.

Some MagicJack users have complained about certain phones not working with Caller ID. If switching phones doesn't enable Caller ID, another solution is to plug the MagicJack into a different USB computer port.
