Hmmm BTN, may be I should tell that to my E1 provider, they use my
CallerID as the BTN, additionnaly whenever I don't provide a number
which matches the one configured on my PRI the set a default CallerID!!!
So that's also the reason why they cannot provide me with such a service
like send-any-callerid-you-like!!! Too bad!!!

It entirely depends on how that carrier deals with caller ID. Usually
you would not be able to set your own, as it's done by their

On a PRI I've never had a carrier, ILEC, CLEC, not-LEC-at-all, *not*
expect me to provide the number I want to use for the source of the
call. After all, many applications require many DIDs to be in service
on a single PRI, and the carrier has no idea which one the call is
"from" unless your PBX, soft switch, etc., tells them. Now, some of
them will block anything other than the DIDs you've paid them for on
that PRI, but that's a different story.
(I say the above fully expecting that someone can tell me about an
exception.)
Being this is usually only handed over to them by other TELCOs, it's
pretty much a new issue, and not something they are really prepared for.
And all those little PBXs sitting in closets all over the land.... PRIs
are not exactly a new product for end-user use.
Everything could start falling to pieces if that does not work as all
the billing is based on identifying who is calling whom.
Which is exactly why any carrier with their act even mildly together
also tracks the BTN (billing telephone number) of the PRI, based on the
circuit your call comes in on, no matter what you claim as the source of
the call.
