Call Waiting

With Call Waiting, during a call, if another caller is trying to reach you, you will hear a soft beep every 5 seconds.

If you have also subscribed to a Caller Display service, the caller’s number (or name if stored in the directory) will be displayed.

Instead of the engaged tone, the second caller will hear an announcement asking them to hold the line.

To use Call Waiting

To answer the second call, without disconnecting from your first caller:

1.Press . The first caller will be put on hold and you will be connected to the second caller.

2.Press again to return to the first caller, and then press it each time you want to switch between the two callers.

To disconnect the first call:

1.Press to end the first call. The handset will then ring.

2.Press and continue your conversation with the second caller.

Call Waiting works in the same way for the base as it does for the handset.

IMPORTANT

To use Call Waiting you must first subscribe to the service from your network provider. A fee is payable. For more information on BT Calling Features call BT free on

The Call Waiting beep is not audible to the person you are speaking to.
