Abstract

A remote caller identification system with data logging and retrieval features including a data logging unit which logs caller identifying information from incoming calls from a caller to a subscriber phone connected to a switched telephone network. A subscriber may subsequently retrieve the caller identifying information from the data logging unit via a remote phone or via the internet. The system has at least three possible implementations. In one implementation, the caller identifying information is stored in a Service Signaling Point database. In a second implementation, the caller identifying information is stored in a Service Control Point database. In the third implementation, the caller identifying information is stored in a database in a storage and retrieval device of a stand alone Customer Premises Equipment. A caller retrieving the caller identification information is prompted to input a password and with a menu to review or edit the caller identifying information.
