How to request an outbound caller ID name change

Objective

Provide the information needed to request a caller ID name update for outbound calls.

Include this information

  • Company and requester
  • Callback number
  • Every business phone number affected
  • Current caller ID name
  • Requested caller ID name with exact spelling and capitalization
  • Whether the request applies to one number or all outbound numbers
  • Desired effective date

The receiving carrier or device controls how caller ID is displayed. Saved contacts, carrier databases, and spam-labeling services may show something different from the requested name.

Contact Automated Telecom Support

Contact 760.837.7000 or support@automatedtelecom.com.

Verification

After Automated Telecom confirms the change, place test calls to several outside carriers and numbers that do not have the business saved as a contact.

Expected result: Supported destinations display the updated caller ID name, subject to receiving-carrier behavior.
