Onscreen caller ID not working

I posted about this a few times on the TV forum, but get no help.  I have the newer Contour 2 tv receiver.  The onscreen caller ID is not working.  Notifications are turned on.

Between no caller ID, and the lack of support for blocking robocalls, I am seriously doubting the worth of having cox telephone service.  I am going to look for alternatives if these issues cannot be resolved.

    Same issue except I do not have the package to have the caller id to be shown on the tv but have lost the caller id on my phone. Just says incoming call. Unable to screen. Very frustrating given the number and frequency of telemarketing calls I get on the COX phone number.

    I have gone through all of the help options and On screen caller id has not worked since day 1. CONTOUR 2 receivers. Also apparently the number they gave me is on "Every" calling list available, Ive submitted to the national do not call and STILL receiving robocalls and soliciting calls. 

    1. Need On Screen Caller Id working

    2. Need to find out how to change number to a non listed number.

    Thank you,

    Mike

  • Hello Denny G,

    This feature should be working with the Contour 2 receivers. Was this working at one point? We need to review your account to see where we are at with a solution. Anyone experiencing troubles with this feature please contact Cox, or email us at Cox.Help@cox.com with your address, name, and we can continue to investigate this trouble.

    Thanks,

  • I have 3 contour 1 boxes and the caller ID is not working on any of them. Also, I am not getting the transcribed Email messages from my voice mail. Any assistance would be appreciated! Jay.
