voip.co.uk allows you to choose another CID, so long as you can prove
to them that you are entitled to it.

Ah, the good old days of 1899voip - could spoof any number.
The only one I use now is voipcheap.com, however you can only present a
mobile number, that you have access to as there is a procedure to go
through with a text message/activation code.

That was *almost* my experience too.
I could spoof most numbers as long as they were included in the list to
use your 1899 account, but some selected ones proved impossible.
Significantly, I couldn't present my own BT landline number.

One of the things that stopped me even trying was that if the person's
number I had spoofed actually dialled 1899xxx. I would've ended up
paying for the call.......that & it wouldn't have been legal, of
course.

Try www.voipgate.com - you can set cli for any number you can receive
an incoming call to (for them to verify).

I had a similar question asked of me - is it possible to put the CLI
of the original caller onto a call when forwarded via a SIP
provider ? From the replies so far the answer looks to be "no" as
people as concerned about ownership of numbers and pre-authorisation.
The PABX supplier says they can do it but the outcome depends on the
service provider.
The situation involved a small PABX taking incoming calls and using an
IVR menu to offer the calling party a choice of numbers which were
then called via mobiles (field staff out on the road). The idea of the
variable CID was to allow the recipient of the forwarded call to have
a number to call back if for example they lost the mobile signal and
the call dropped.

I don't know of any such solution, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
In any case, convention has always dictated that in the event of a dropped
call, the originator of that call attempts to re-establish it, so it would
be up to the caller to try again, not the recipient.

There is a detailed write up of this very thing somewhere on the
NerdVittles blog at <http://nerdvittels.com>
When I call forward using a Sipura SPA3000, the caller's CLI remains
intact, by the way, even on calls from the PSTN. (Not call transfer)

are you forwarding via an ITSP (if so which one) or just forwarding
the SIP call to a different place ?

You clearly don't have customers to deal with.

Sorry, you've lost me. If a call drops, it's up to the caller to
re-establish it, that's always been the convention with everyone I know
for as long as I can remember.
If you call me, presumably you want to talk to me. If the call drops, you
will call me again if you want to carry on talking to me. Why should I
call you at my expense when it was you who initiated the conversation..?

haha. I make/receive that many calls in a day, I often can't remember
if I'm the caller or not! I never leave a customer to call me back,
regardless.

Sorry and all that, but if you can't remember whether you made or answered
a call, that's your own problem..! If I call someone and the call drops, I
try again. If someone calls me and it drops, I expect them to try again.
It has been convention for as long as I can remember.

They still do (well, it happenss here).
If a call is cut short when you are speaking to a customer, it is only
polite for you to call them back.
