caller ID - Name shows, but not phone number

I have the new iphone 12 pro... and when someone calls me, it shows me the callers name, and not the phone number... but I really need to know the number that is calling too... anyone know how to fix this?

Sorry should have been more clear. I mean numbers that are not stored in my phone.


I would like to know the number that is calling me for people that are not stored in my phone. now my phone somehow gets the callers name, and is not providing their phone number when they call (but i would like to know area code, and number they are calling from before i decide to answer)

thanks for your reply but its not always the case. I'm really just working for a fix to find out how i can see a phone number for someone that is calling my iphone 12 pro (and not just their name) I would be happy with removing their name and only providing a phone number (for people not stored in my phone)

I have exactly the same issue, all of a sudden, non-contacts are coming in and showing as Wireless Caller or No Caller ID, it does show the city from where the call is coming from. After I dont answer and IF they leave a VM the phone number shows. If no VM it does not show phone number in recents. I went to settings, phone, and I dont have caller id, wireless calls or call forwarding in the list and where it should be, just not there. So far the tech person at Verizon could not figure it out, had me do a hard reset and also a software update for IOS14.2 I am waiting....Is this only Iphone 12 pro?
