Hold

Description

Hold lets you temporarily suspend a telephone call. While the call is on Hold, you can use other telephone features. The call can be either retrieved at the telephone that placed the call on Hold or at another telephone.

NOTE: Do not confuse Hold with the wait period that occurs during other feature activations (such as Transfer). This wait period is referred to as Consultation Hold or Soft Hold.
