Call Waiting

Call waiting enables you to receive a notification of an incoming call when you’re currently having another phone conversation. When you’re using a phone with call waiting capabilities, you’ll hear a quick beep when an incoming call occurs. You can place the original caller on hold to take the second call, or switch between the two calls.

There is no monthly fee for call waiting.

• When you hear the tone, press and release the Flash button or receiver button on your phone and greet your new caller.
• To alternate between calls or return to your first caller, press and release the Flash button or receiver button on your phone. 
• To end either conversation, simply hang up. If one caller is still on the line, your phone will ring. When you pick up the call, you will be connected to the caller again.
