Call Waiting
Ever worried about missing calls when either you or somebody else has been on the phone?
You won’t need to worry any more with Call Waiting. If you don’t have this feature and would like it, please
contact Optus Customer Service on 133 937 for further information.
With Call Waiting you will hear a series of two discreet beeps when a second caller is trying to get through.
You can ask the first caller to hold while you answer the second caller.

STeP 1
When you’re talking on the phone and you hear the Call Waiting beeps, press
Flash/Recall
to put the first caller on hold and talk to the new caller.
(The caller on hold will hear nothing.)
STeP 2
Press
Flash/Recall
to put the new caller on hold and return to the first caller.
(By pressing
Flash/Recall
you can alternate between the two calls.)
Alternatively, you can choose not to use Call Waiting by ending the first call in the usual way by hanging up
the phone. The phone will then ring again with the second caller. This means you will be unable to return to
the first call.
