Automatic Recall
How to use Automatic Recall:
- Pick up the handset and listen for a normal dial tone.
- If you were already on the phone and ignored a call waiting tone, depress the switchhook and release quickly.
- Press *69. On a rotary phone, dial 1169. Your call will go through like a normal call.
If the line is busy:
- Hang up. Your phone will keep trying the line for up to 30 minutes.
- A special callback ring alerts you if the line becomes free. (Some phones ring normally.)
- Pick up the handset to automatically place the call.
To cancel:
- press *89
- Listen for confirmation tone or announcement. Hang up.
Notes:
- In some areas, after you dial *69, a voice will give you the phone number of the call you missed and ask if you want to use the Automatic Recall feature. Just follow the voice instructions.
- Does not work on 800 numbers, 900 numbers, numbers outside the specified service area, or lines using Call Forward and some other call services.
- Also available as an option to this feature is Voice Caller ID. With this option, when the called party dials the *69, a voice will announce the number of the caller (if known) and then allow the called party to return the call.
