Using the “Call back when busy” function (Service 37)

If the recipient of your call is busy, you can activate the call back function. It establishes the connection as soon as the line becomes available.

How it works

If the recipient’s line becomes available, the network will wait 10 seconds to enable the recipient to make a call. If no call is made, the return call to you is placed. If your line is busy, the return call will be placed once you are available again. If you accept the return call, the network will establish a connection to the desired recipient and both users will be connected.
