A system for automatically providing an incoming calling line identification (ICLID) to a paging system, so that a called party knows who called (or, at a minimum that a call was received) when he/she is away from a telephone. By this method, the calling party does not have to know any other numbers besides the called party's base number, and does not have to know PIN or other identification systems for use with a paging system. An incoming calling line ICLID is received, and the call is completed either to an answering machine on the customer premise or, alternatively, to a voice mail system. The customer premise device waits until the line has cleared and then dials a telephone number of a paging service, optionally entering any PIN number or other code number and then outpulses the received ICLID to the paging service. The paging service then pages the called party, and causes the ICLID to be displayed.
