It defines whether your phone number will be displayed on someone's caller ID unit when you call them. Select 'no' if you wish your number to remain private.
If you call someone, you are the "caller".
This phone system only allows users to see the caller id information from the phone itself and no caller id info is displayed on the charging station.
Type *67 before you dial their number. This works and it's really fun!

I am not sure, if the number displayed is a valid call ID number, but Caller ID displays the phone number of the person who made the call to you including the area code and phone number. From this you an identify the person calling you. If you have a phone book system in the phone and you have saved phone numbers with names, some phones will display name of the person from the address book when the caller id matches the stored number. Some times the number displayed on caller ID is not a standard phone number. Some of these calls may be from a VOIP service or from some customer service call centers (internal on the service provider network) or when the caller ID is masked by the caller or caller's network service provider. - Neeraj Sharma
Today, about 99% of phones come with a caller ID service that is automatically enabled by default. When it comes to home telephones (landline) with caller ID, one could contact their phone company and opt out of the caller ID service if needed. More importantly, the caller ID feature that we have come to trust is not as secure as it was in the past. Anybody can change or fake the number that is displayed on the caller ID with a simple spoof calling card. Be careful and remember that anyone can change their caller ID number.

You dial *67 then the number. Example - *67-555-1212 This is how your number isn't shown to the other person you are calling ... What I mean is this will come up as RESTRICTED on a cell phone but on a land line (with caller ID) it comes up PRIVATE NAME or UNAVAILABLE PRIVATE NUMBER
*67
Unless you're 'ex-directory' or 'unlisted' - they can get your number from the people who compile your phone book ! If the caller ID shows 'No number' or 'unknown' - it simply means the caller is using a phone connected through a switchboard (rather than a direct line).
