Can this function WITHOUT the captioning -- just as a regular phone, without paying for caption service? Does it have caller ID?

Yes CC is a FREE service provided by the government to all callers for those impaired. There is no cost and you only use it if you push the button. It has caller id and can audibly speak the caller id if you want.

Yes, the captions can be turned off if the user is not hard of hearing. The captioning service is actually a free service provided by the FCC so there is no fee to pay for the phone though you will need high speed internet access. The phone does have caller id provided you have purchased caller id service from your telephone provider.

The phone functions as a normal phone and has caller I'd. There is no charge or fee for the captioning service but you must have wireless internet in your home for the captioning to work. It also functions as an answering machine which you can if you choose have the message captioned on playback.

It does have voice command capacity as long as the number with name is on your cell phone. I don't use that feature, but it can be done.

Don't know. Never used phone because the texting was the old system using the numbers. Did not research it's' functions at all.

Since I have caller ID service, I don't know if it would work without it. I wouldn't think so. I do love the phone system. I have had no problems with it.

yes. Simple basic unit, no caller ID, no message taking. Light weight unit that can mount on a wall or be used as a desk phone.

Yes, it does display caller ID if you have this service; however, the down side is that it requires batteries for the digital ID to work. I am currently using the Amazon rechargeable batteries for that. I highly recommend this product

Yes, it does, if the callers carrier supports it. Sometimes here in Texas, it will just say "Texas caller" without the name. It all depends. Cell companies give you the option as to what your caller ID is. Some higher models of Panasonic have talking caller ID, which calls out the name or number of the party calling. This is a great phone though.

Yes, you don't have to use it. I never do. it's annoying. you can see the caller ID read out very clearly on the phone. I'm still very pleased with this purchase.

Some Dish and DirecTV receivers do not include the closed caption stream. I find it frustrating but you may need to find the solution through your content provider rather than through LG.

No this is simply a caller ID. It is great for the visually impaired but you would need a separate answering machine.

All incoming messages are captioned, so if someone calls and you are not home the message they leave is captioned. Any welcoming or outgoing messaes are not captioned. I hope this helps.

It does not have caller ID. I purchased it strictly for it's clear sound, with no concern for added features.

Just dial normally. Phone connects to a website so you must have WiFi. It takes a few seconds for the captioning to start. The captioning is a couple seconds behind..my mother is very hard of hearing and loves the phone.

no it does not have caller ID its just a regular phone but cute,you can get a caller ID box and call your phone service for caller ID feature, that's what I would do if I wanted caller ID on this phone

It automatically recognizes the voice commands, "answer" or "ignore"; in fact, if you DON'T want it to do that you have to disable voice commands. To get it to allow you to tell it the number to call, you press the "Call" button 2 seconds, wait for the prompt & then tell it the name of the stored contact to call. Hope this helps!

Yes you can. It had caller ID too, once u enter the number and name it identifies who is calling. Otherwise it identifies the number that is calling
