AUTOMATIC RECALL

Redials your last caller even if you couldn’t answer in time.

How to use:

  • Pick up the handset and listen for a normal dial tone.

  • If you are already on the phone and ignored a call waiting tone, depress the “switchhook” and release quickly.

  • Press *69. On a rotary phone, dial 1169. Your call will go through like a normal call.

If the line is busy:

  • Hang up. Your phone will keep trying the line 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:

  • Press *89.

  • Listen for confirmation tone or announcement. Hang up.


Notes:

The “switchhook” is the round, flat, or square button you push to hang up the phone.

In some areas, after you dial *69, a voice will give you the phone number of the call you missed and ask if you want to use the Automatic Recall feature. Just follow the voice instructions.

Does not work on 800 numbers, 900 numbers, numbers outside the specified service area (Siskiyou Telephone’s intralata), or lines using Call Forward and some other call services.
