Caller
ID
Caller ID displays the number of incoming calls when you're in
a digital service area. It allows you to prioritize incoming calls
so you don't miss the most important ones and minimize unnecessary
interruptions. Because Caller ID works in conjunction with Call
Waiting, you can see who is calling you before you decide to interrupt
the first call you're on.
Call
Forwarding
Call Forwarding allows you to redirect all incoming calls to another
phone number. When Call Forwarding is switched on, your phone
won't ring and all incoming calls will be directed to the number
you specified when you switched on the feature.
Call Forwarding
means you can avoid giving people lists of numbers where they
can reach you. If you're going to be outside our service area,
you can forward your calls to a number where you're staying.
Call
Waiting
Call Waiting helps you avoid missing important callers when you're
on another call by alerting you when another call comes through.
You can either accept the second incoming call or let it to go
straight to voice mail. Either way, you never need to miss a call
with TELUS Mobility PCS.
Call Waiting
works with Caller ID so you can see who's calling you before you
decide to interrupt your first call.
Conference
Calling
Ever have problems trying to relay messages back and forth between
two people when it would be much easier to have everyone on the
line at the same time? Conference Calling is the solution. It
allows you to have a conversation with two different people at
the same time avoiding confusion and helping you to use your time
more efficiently.
Do
Not Disturb
When Do Not Disturb is switched on, your phone won't ring and
all incoming calls will be directed to your Voice Mail. Do Not
Disturb is ideal if you want to temporarily redirect all your
calls to Voice Mail and still receive Voice Mail, Text and Numeric
Messaging to your phone.
