Immediately after a numeric page or SkyTalk® notification, you'll see the registered "owner" (a person's name or business) of the telephone that was used to place the call. |

Q. |
What will I display on my pager if the call is placed from a pay phone, cell phone, or hotel? |
A. |
The information that you will receive from these sources will be limited. Some pay phone operators pass along the words "Pay Phone," and some hotels will give the name of the hotel but not the room number. Also, some cellular carriers provide their name if a call is placed from a cell phone. In general, however, when a call is placed from one of these sources, you will receive "NAME UNAVAILABLE". |

Q. |
What will I receive if the call is placed from a place of business that uses a PBX system? |

|
Q. |
If someone sends me a phone number through operator dispatch, the SkyTel web site or software, will I still receive a caller ID on the end of the message? |

No -- SkyTel Caller ID is only valid for numeric pages or SkyTalk® messages sent via the telephone. |
