Suddenlink Does 'TV Caller ID'

ST. LOUIS -- Suddenlink’s North Carolina customers will no longer need to find a ringing phone to check who is calling them. They can now see who’s calling on their TV screens.

Suddenlink today announced the roll out of its new TV Caller ID service free of charge for North Carolina customers who have a combination of Suddenlink Phone and Digital TV services – the minimum required services for TV Caller ID to work.

When the phone rings, a banner pops up across the bottom of the TV screen to indicate who is calling. (Customers have the option to turn off this banner, if they don’t want it.)

“TV Caller ID is just another way Suddenlink keeps getting better, providing the latest in innovative products and technology for our customers’ benefit,” said Phil Ahlschlager, the Senior Vice President of Operations for Suddenlink’s North Carolina Region.

Suddenlink is using Integra5’s Converged Services Platform (i5 CSP) to offer the new TV Caller ID service. The i5 CSP helps video providers, video programmers, and wireless operators deliver next-generation communications and social media experiences to multiple consumer devices.
