Caller ID on TV Screen

Since replacing our gateway earlier this week, caller ID no longer appears on iur TV screen.  We have Xfinity triple play and did not change the cable box or other cable connections.  What needs to be done?

Hi there @@chasrudolph I know how important caller ID is. Have you tried power cycling the box by completely unplugging and powering it down? Then plug it back in and power it back up.

Ever since I got my new modem from Xfinity I can not get my caller ID on my TV screen. I called and talked to a technician and she tried everything and I still do not have it. I got my modem two weeks ago and haven't had caller ID on my TV ever since.

Apparently when you switch out boxes, It automatically disables the caller ID feature. They have to reconfigure the settings. They just did that for me over the phone.

Hello, @shirlmae. Thank you for reaching out over Xfinity Forums for support, you have contacted the right place for assistance in regard to Caller ID populating on your TV. I can definitely help troubleshoot this further, and would like to help get this corrected as I really enjoy that feature as it helps me determine if I need to get up to answer the phone while watching TV. 

 

I see that it was recommended to check your settings in this post: by pressing the Xfinity Button, go to settings, preferences, and then notifications? Once there can you make sure the Caller ID is on? 

 

I've also seen other users replying that with getting the new equipment that the Caller ID TV feature is disabled, and may need to be provisioned. If you have checked your settings and are still having issues please send a direct message and I can help with getting the Caller ID TV working.
