Call Waiting ID & Call Waiting ID with Name
Call Waiting ID gives you the number of an incoming call when you are on the phone. Call Waiting ID with Name gives you the name and number of the caller. These features give you the power to decide if you want to continue with your current conversation or pick up the incoming call.
Benefits:
- See who's calling when you're on the phone.
- Avoid unwanted interruptions.
- Never miss an important call from a customer or vendor.
Rates:
Call Waiting ID: $6.00 per month
Call Waiting ID with Name: $6.95 per month
HOW TO USE:
When you're on the phone, a special tone tells you a second call is waiting (unlike ordinary Call Waiting, the person you are talking to will be able to hear the call waiting tone).
The caller's information will appear on your Caller ID display unit.
If you choose to answer a waiting call: Simply press and quickly release the 'switchhook' or flash button on your telephone. Your first caller is automatically put on hold while you're connected to the second caller.
If you choose not to answer the incoming call: You'll hear two special tones to remind you of the waiting call. The person calling hears a normal ring. Their information will be saved in memory in your Caller ID box.
To alternate between callers: Simply press and quickly release the 'switchhook'. While you talk with one caller, the other will automatically be placed on hold. Each conversation remains private.
To hang up with either caller: Hang up. Your phone will ring. When you answer, you'll be connected with the remaining caller.
