Now then all.
I've had to make the jump from copper to fibre broadband and I've gone with Kcom who could offer a landline service too. Due to the change, I've had to replace my phone because the old one's caller ID wouldn't work on system - apparently it's a thing if they are over 10-15 years old.
My new phone's caller ID (Motorola CT202) gives the number but for some reason tells me the call was over 10 months ago.
For example, I tested the phone 23/11/25 at 15.00. The caller ID said the phone call came through 04/01/25 05.00am. Ringing 1471 gives the correct time.
I set the time and date manually on the phone and as soon as a call comes in, it rolls back the time. Rang again 23/11/25 at 15.10 and time rolls back to 04/01/25 05.10, so you can see it's not reverting back to a default set time but a pre-set amount of time.
Kcom said it is nothing to do with them and it's an issue with the phone but I can't see how because the phone pulls the information from the phone line.
I'm awaiting a response from the phone manufacturer.
Any ideas?
