[PLUG-TALK] Phone caller ID

I recently got a Tracfone cell phone. When I call my landline (Comcast)
from the cell phone the Caller ID says "Dawn Larson". When I call a
neighbor's landline (Century Link) the display says "Portland, OR" When I
call a third person's landline (unknown provider) it says "Wireless caller".
I suspect that the two which do not display "Dawn Larson" are avoiding the
pain of frequent ID updating and are using some default ID. I have
contacted Tracfone numerous times. That I am posting this question here
should show that the contacts with Tracfone have been less than
satisfactory.
How long does it typically take to get this done? The phone was activated
5 days ago. Is there anything which I might do to help the process along?
(My searching leads me to believe that in this case Tracfone is using ATT.)
Thanks,
-Denis
