I have a premium office plan, and was told that Caller ID would work on our phones (in Toronto, Canada).

The U.S. Office Premium and Ultimate have the CNAM feature.
Regarding Canada: Caller ID options are limited in Canada...this is not a RC limitation, but a limitation in Canada.
Per Tier 3 Engineering:

Per Tier 3 Engineering:
I think the confusion might be with the terms being used, and the difference between outbound and inbound calls can be confusion as well. There are 2 functions. Caller ID which displays the number, and CNAM which displays the name. For inbound calls we display the caller ID that is handed to RingCentral. If it is incorrect whomever is calling needs to advise their carrier to track down where it is being changed before it gets to RingCentral. It is the callers carriers responsibility to ensure it is delivered to us correctly. The same applies to RingCentral outbound calls to a terminating carrier. RingCentral should be responsible for delivering it to the end user correctly. CNAM is a different monster. The name has to be correct in a central repository in Canada, and then when the called person receives a call they "dip" in to this central repository for the name. When it comes to Canadian CNAM we do NOT update the database with our Canadian numbers. We will check the incoming numbers against the American database (as it sometimes has the information there), but that is as far as it goes. So in short if the external user (Canadian) is calling any RingCentral customer (despite if they are Canadian or American) then it is a crap shoot if you will receive the CNAM display, and is unfortunately not a supported feature. Hope this answers your questions.

This reply was created from a merged topic originally titled Caller ID: how to see incoming caller ID NAMES.
I have asked several people at RC this question and have yet to get a straight answer. This is very important to our business.

Katie,
In order to see the Caller ID names, you need to have a RingCentral Office Premium or Enterprise account. The standard account will not provide Caller ID names.
See the listing of features for all the three plans here:

Shea Daniel...
The graphic used to have that feature listed. Why RingCentral removed it is unknown to me. Remember that I posted that message two years ago!

We are clients in Toronto. Wondering why the Caller ID shows City, Province with an incoming call and not the phone number? After the call in the Call Log, we can click on the "Info" icon and see the number. Why can't we see that info as the phone is ringing? Is this a feature we can change? Thanks.

If so, that's pretty pathetic that your actually policy is "it's a crap shoot". Are there any plans on the roadmap to improve CNAM for Canadian customers, and actually interface with the Canadian database?
