3.11 OUT OF THE OFFICE — MAKING CALLS
WITH CALL BACK AND CALL BRIDGE
Working together, call back and call bridge act as your personal
long-distance operator. Whether you are across town or around the world,
these two features allow you to place calls from your office telephone
line(s).
You can make a call to TalkSwitch, access a telephone line connected to
TalkSwitch and enter the number you want to dial. This is especially useful
when you are out of the office with your cell phone and need to make a
long-distance call. You can avoid the long-distance cell rates by making a
local call to TalkSwitch and access your office savings plan through
call bridge.

2. When the auto attendant answers, select a hunt group (

3. Enter your account password. If you are using
Same Line Connect
and
your line supports the 3-way calling/conference service, you are
prompted to enter the phone number.
