Actually, I *>>NEED<<* to change the caller ID. Here's
why...<br>
<br>
Someone dials into my DID, their caller ID reflects their (cell, home
office, etc...)<br>
The call then rings my VoIP phones.<br>
It then announces "Outside Transfer" after 3 rings, at which time it
rings my VoIP phones AND my cell phone.<br>
<br>
If PSTN gateway providers lock the callerid to my DID and I have no way
to change it, then I have no idea whom is calling me. And that is a
requirement... If I'm sitting in a meeting room with 15 people, I need
to know if whomever is calling me is worth the interruption.<br>
<br>
And frankly, <u><b>NO</b></u>... I don't want to give anyone my cell
number. Once you give out the cell number, people call you on it
before they attempt any other number.<br>

Please tell me how you can construe making a call with the the CID of a
number in your control to be "Misleading or inaccurate"

You're answering your own question. Forwarding a call with a number
<br>
that is not the originating number is what (drum roll)
<br>
<br>
a) accurate
<br>
b) inaccurate
<br>
<br>
If you answered b then see me off-list for your scooby snack. As for
<br>
possible scenarios, hows this one for size, you change your CID to
<br>
reflect 1-800-MASTERCARD call around and fish for information:
<br>
<br>
"This is John with MASTERCARD services, there's been fraudulent
<br>
activity on your card and we've suspended it until we can confirm
<br>
your card number..."
<br>
<br>
And that's all she wrote. I've been up and down this road on the
