Service Features: Call Waiting

Call Waiting What Is It?

Call Waiting notifies you of an incoming call on your phone while you are already on a call. You can place your call on hold to answer the incoming call. 

The Call Waiting tone (2 beeps every 5 seconds) indicates that another call is waiting to be answered. 
It is easy to switch between calls, meaning there's no need to miss important calls.

Does Call Waiting Affect Internet Or Fax Connections?

Yes, it is possible that Call Waiting may affect these connections. Dialling *44 before the Fax or Internet number you are dialling will disable Call Waiting for that particular call.
