Repeat Dialing
Hate having to dial again and again when the person you're calling is on the phone? With
Repeat Dialing, your phone can automatically check the busy line for up to 30 minutes,
leaving you free to do whatever you want.
As soon as the number is available, your phone will ring back to signal you. When you pick
up the receiver, the call will automatically be placed for you. It's a great idea for any
busy home or office.
Rates:
$2.25 per month (unlimited usage)
or
$.50 per activation
HOW TO USE:
When you hear a busy signal, hang up. Pick up the handset to listen for
a dial tone and press *66. Your phone will keep trying the number for up to 30 minutes
and ring you when it's free. A special callback ring alerts you when the line is free
(some phones ring normally). When you pick up the phone, the call is automatically placed.
To cancel, depress the 'switchhook' and release. Listen for a special dial tone. If
you've already hung up, lift the handset and listen for a normal dial tone. Press *86,
listen for the confirmation tone or announcement and hang up.
Note: This service doesn't work on 800 numbers, 900 numbers, numbers outside the
specified service area, or on lines where Call Forwarding and some other call services
have been activated. Repeat Dialing can check as many as 31 busy lines at once. To
know which call is being completed, you must subscribe to Caller ID service.
