<p>A personalized calling party ID display service in a telecommunications network. Upon initiating a phone call by a calling party towards a called party having a caller ID service, an access code associated with the present invention's service is operable to be effectuated by the calling party. In one embodiment, the calling party selects a particular identification indicium by entering a numeric code. In another embodiment, the calling party dynamically enters a personalized identification indicium at the calling party's station. Where an identification indicium has not been selected or entered, a default indicium may be provided by the network. The service logic is operable to replace or augment a conventional caller ID parameter with the personalized identification indicium based on a service profile query, with the dynamically entered identification indicium, or with a default indicium, and transmit the indicium to the called party provided the caller ID service is active. <IMAGE></p> |
