Repeat Dialing
Monthly Price: $2.50
Also available on a 50-cents-per-usage basis.
Repeat Dialing allows you to dial a code to have your phone continuously attempt to redial a busy number that you tried to call.
When the line is free, you will be alerted with a special ringing, and a call will automatically be made. You can also use Repeat Dialing to redial the last number you called.
What Repeat Dialing Does for You
- Eliminate the frustration of continuously redialing numbers and receiving annoying busy signals.
- Saves time and effort. Repeat Dialing will keep dialing the number for you.
- You will no longer have to look up or remember the phone number during redial attempts.
How to Use
- When you hear a busy signal, depress the switchhook and release.
- Listen for a special dial tone.
- Press *66. On a rotary phone, dial 1166.
If the line is still busy, hang up. Your phone will check the number 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
- Depress the switchhook and listen for special dial tone. If you have already hung up, pick up your handset and listen for the dial tone.
- Press *86. On a rotary phone, dial 1186.
- Listen for tone/announcement and hang up. Once you cancel your request, all Repeat Dial numbers will be cancelled.
