does "freedom essentials" include call waiting id?

And if not, how much does it cost to add?

I believe that anytime you subscribe to both Caller ID and Call Waiting, Call Waiting ID should be included free. Sometimes Verizon will put it on the line automatically, if not just ask for it and make sure you have a phone capable of displaying Call Waiting ID.

Call Waiting ID

Per Use Fee: n/a Monthly Fee:  $0.00  

You'll know who's calling - even if it's a Call Waiting call

With Call Waiting ID, you'll be alerted to an incoming call when you're already on the line, and you'll also be able to see the name and number* of the person trying to reach you. Since you'll know the identity of your second caller, you can choose whether to answer the new call or continue with your current conversation.

*The name and/or number of your caller may not be displayed for every incoming call. In some cases, you will see a message on your Caller ID display unit instead of the name and number of the caller. The exact wording of the message may vary depending upon your display unit. "Out of Area" or "Unavailable" messages may appear for calls made outside specially equipped areas, calls made through an operator, and for certain telephone numbers for which Verizon does not purchase Caller ID information. "Private" or "Anonymous" messages may appear for calls made by people who have blocked the display of their telephone information.

You can block "Private" or "Anonymous" calls by activating Anonymous Call Rejection (ACR). ACR is included with your Call Waiting ID service.

   

Call Waiting ID comes with the Verizon 60-Day Customer Satisfaction Guarantee. If you are not satisfied for any reason, you may call your local Verizon Business Office within 60 days of service activation to disconnect the service and receive a full credit of the monthly service charge for Call Waiting ID on your phone bill.

All features are subject to availability and compatibility restrictions. Additional charges may apply.

You must also subscribe to Call Waiting and Caller ID to have this service. If you already subscribe to Caller ID and Call Waiting, you can request Call Waiting ID at no additional cost in most states. A special Call Waiting ID display device is required and may be purchased from a local retailer of your choice.
