Answer 1

you are probably using a new phone service not the traditional at&t. when they dial around or use cable it can show as private caller

Answer 2

I would suggest calling your phone provider and asking them.  However, if my name and number didn't pop up on caller i.d., i would consider myself lucky!!!
