Automatic Call Return *69

*69 automatically stores and allows you to redial the number of the last person who called you. This feature works on calls from numbers within your regional calling area and can be used whether or not you answered the call1. Should you return the call and the number is busy, *69 monitors the busy line and tries to connect your call for up to 30 minutes, as long as you don’t cancel it. In most cases, your phone will ring with a series of short-short-long rings when the number is no longer busy.

To use this service:

• Lift the receiver.
• Listen for dial tone. 
• Press [*] [6] [9]. 
• You will hear the number that just called you ringing.

If the line is busy:

• Listen for confirmation tone. 
• Hang up. 
• When the line is free your phone will ring.

To cancel this service:

• Lift the receiver. 
• Listen for dial tone. 
• Press [*] [8] [9]. 
• Listen for confirmation tone.

Call Forwarding Services

Call Forwarding Variable

With Call Forwarding Variable, you can forward all incoming calls to a pre-determined phone number. You have the flexibility to select your own forward-to number, to change it whenever you like, and to turn the feature on or off whenever necessary from your phone1. Upon activation, it overrides any other Call Forwarding features that you may have on line and provides you with the mobility to be productive after hours and when you’re away from the office.

To use this service:

• On phones with touch-tone service, press [*] [7] [2]. On rotary phones, dial (7) (2). 
• Listen for a dial tone, then dial the number where you want your calls to go. (In some areas, you will hear two beeps.) 
• When the party picks up, Call Forwarding is in effect. (Be sure to say that you are forwarding your calls to their number.) Your calls will continue to be forwarded until you turn off Call Forwarding. 
• If the line is busy or there is no answer, briefly press the switchhook, recall button or flash key and call again within two minutes. Listen for two short beeps.

To confirm that Call Forwarding is turned on:

• On phones with touch-tone service, press [*] [7] [2]. On rotary phones, dial (7) (2). 
• Listen for two short beeps.

To turn off Call Forwarding:

• On phones with touch-tone service, press [*] [7] [3]. On rotary phones, dial (7) (3).
• Listen for two short beeps.

NOTES:

1. When Call Forwarding is on, you can still make outgoing calls on your business line.
2. You cannot answer a call on your business line when Call Forwarding is on. However, a short reminder tone will signal you that a call has been forwarded.
3. If a forwarded call is completed and is a toll call, you will be charged for that call.

Enhanced Call Forwarding

While using Enhanced Call Forwarding, certain buttons always have the same standard function:

• Press [8] to jump to the Main Menu.

• After entering a string of digits, press [#] to end the string.

NOTES:

1. Once you become familiar with Enhanced Call Forwarding, you may “dial ahead” by entering a string of digits during the prompt. 
2. Some of the changes you make will be registered right away. Other changes may require that you confirm or complete your entries before they are registered.
3. The help information you hear will apply to the options in the menu you are currently on. If you don’t hear help information that is relevant to what you want to do, press [*] to back up to a previous menu or press [8] to go to the Main Menu, then press [0] to hear additional help information.

Protect your PIN

You can keep your PIN secure and private by choosing a 6- to 10-digit number that is easy to remember and difficult for others to guess.

You can change your PIN immediately after subscribing to Enhanced Call Forwarding or if you learn from callers that they were connected to another party when trying to reach you.

Your phone bill should be checked each month so that you can be sure the calls listed are yours.

Forwarding Menu

The Forwarding Menu allows you to choose how your calls are forwarded. This is the first menu you hear once you’ve signed on to Enhanced Call Forwarding, so you can easily enter new information and then hang up if you have no other changes.

NOTES:

1. You can store up to 12 phone numbers from within your regional calling area on the Select Call Forwarding list.
2. Calls from numbers not on your Select Call Forwarding list will ring your telephone with normal ringing and can be answered.

4. In some areas, to turn Select Call Forwarding off you will have to press [*] [8] [3]. Consult your Hawaiian Telcom Representative to see if this applies to you.

Call Waiting/Cancel Call Waiting

Call Waiting

When you’re on the line, Call Waiting alerts you to incoming calls with an audible tone. You can then choose to place your current call on hold or disregard the incoming call. The person calling you receives a ringing tone instead of a busy tone. You can use Call Waiting to maximize efficiency and enhance customer service by ensuring fast response to important inquiries.

To use this service:

• A special tone will tell you that another caller is trying to reach you.
• To put your current call on hold while you answer a second call, briefly press the switchhook, recall button or flash key. You can switch between callers as often as you like.
• If you don’t wish to answer the second call, just continue talking. A reminder tone will signal you — ten seconds after the first tone — giving you another chance to answer.
• To end your first call, just hang up. Your phone will ring and the second caller will be on the line.

NOTES:

1. Each call is separate and private. No caller can overhear the other caller’s conversation.
2. When you choose not to answer a second incoming call, the caller hears the standard telephone ring until they hang up.
3. Pressing the switchhook for too long may disconnect your first call connection. Pressing it too quickly may not activate Call Waiting. If this happens, simply press the switchhook again.
4. If the first person hangs up, you will automatically be connected to the second person within two seconds.
5. Call Waiting allows you to have two people on your line at the same time (one on hold and one to whom you are talking). A third caller will hear a busy signal.

Cancel Call Waiting (Tone Block)

Cancel Call Waiting allows you to temporarily deactivate Call Waiting when you don’t want to be interrupted during an important call. Cancel Call Waiting can be activated before you place a call or at any point during a conversation. Call Waiting automatically reactivates when you hang up.

To activate Cancel Call Waiting before placing a call:

• Lift the handset and listen for dial tone.
• Press [*] [7] [0].
• Listen for three brief tones, followed by a normal dial tone.
• Dial the telephone number.

To activate Cancel Call Waiting during a call:

• Press and release the switchhook.
• Press [*] [7] [0]. You will reconnect automatically to your call.

NOTES:

1. Cancel Call Waiting works only for the length of one call. When you hang up, Call Waiting returns automatically to your phone.
2. In some areas you can only use Cancel Call Waiting before placing a call. If you try to use Cancel Call Waiting during a call, you will hear a rapid busy signal.

Caller ID

Together with compatible display telephones or a separate, Caller ID display box, Caller ID allows you to see the listed name and the number of an incoming call before you answer. This convenient feature can enhance customer service by encouraging personal greetings and allowing you to access pertinent information before you pick up the phone. The service can also be used to prioritize and screen calls when you’re expecting other important calls. Not all Caller ID display devices are the same in design, features, and the amount of information they can retain. Caller ID will display information between the first and second rings for most calls, including long distance. Nevertheless, some calls may be described as “Out-of-Area” or as “Private Number” and the information will not be displayed.

Caller ID is also compatible with personal computers. In other words, with optional software, you can view caller information on your computer screen.

To use this service:

• After installing your display unit, you’ll see either the number of the incoming call, or the number and the name of the calling party as they appear in Hawaiian Telcom customer listing records for the calling telephone number. Most units store this information — so if a call comes in while you’re out, you can see the name and number later.

Special instructions for Caller ID:

• When you’re on the phone, Caller ID shows you the number of the “waiting” call and the name of the calling party. You can then choose whether or not to use Call Waiting

Privacy information:

• By dialing  [*] [6] [7] (on rotary phones dial, (1) (1) (6) (7)), callers can prevent their numbers from being displayed. With many display units, you’ll see a “Private” or “P” message. See the manufacturer’s instructions for information on display messages.
• Caller ID will display names and numbers of most calls, including long distance. Some calls may be shown as “Out-of-Area” and the number will not be displayed. See the manufacturer’s instructions for information on display messages.

NOTES:

1. The display unit must hear one ring before it can receive a number to display.
2. Certain telephone numbers displayed by Caller ID with Name and Number cannot be called because they are not designed to accept incoming calls. One example is Wide Area Telephone Service (WATS) numbers.

Distinctive Ringing

Distinctive Ringing gives you two numbers for a single phone line, each with its own special ring, so you can more easily prioritize your calls. For example, you can assign one number to clients, and the other to vendors.

At no extra cost, you can list an additional name with your Distinctive Ringing number in your local directory.

Distinctive Ringing is compatible with all calling services except Enhanced Call Forwarding.

To use this service:

• Calls placed to the primary number will ring in the usual way (one long ring).
• Calls placed to the secondary Distinctive Ring number will ring with two short rings.
• The person calling you will hear the usual long ring when placing calls to either the primary or secondary Distinctive Ring number.

Special interactions:

If you subscribe to Call Waiting, you will have Call Waiting on both telephone numbers. You can tell which number the call is for by the number of tones you hear during the call:

• If the caller dials your primary number, you will hear the normal Call Waiting tone. The caller hears normal ringing until you answer the call.
• If the caller dials your secondary Distinctive Ring number, you will hear two Call Waiting tones. The caller hears normal ringing until you answer the call.

NOTE: Call Waiting tones for Priority Call and Distinctive Ring are identical.

Three-Way Calling

With Three-Way Calling, you can add a third party to your calls to create a three-way conference. In this way, you can save time and money and improve efficiency by talking to more than one party, either locally or long-distance.

To use this service:

• To add a third person to an ordinary “two-way” call, briefly press the switchhook, recall button or flash key. This will put the call on hold.
• Listen for three short tones and then a dial tone.
• Dial the number for the person you want to add to your call.
• When the person answers, you can speak privately first, or simply bring them into the conversation by briefly pressing the switchhook, recall button or flash key.
• If the line is busy or there is no answer, return to the original party by pressing the switchhook, recall button or flash key twice. You can then use Three-Way Calling again at any point during your call. Just follow the instructions above.

To disconnect:

• Either person you’re talking to can leave the conversation by hanging up. You will still be connected to the remaining person.
• You can disconnect the second number you called by pressing the switchhook, recall button or flash key. If you want, you can then call a new number.
• To end the call completely, simply hang up.

NOTES:

1. Only three telephone numbers can be connected on one conference call. However, you can use telephone extensions to allow more people to participate in the call.
2. If more than one extension is in use at the number that initiated the call, all but one must hang up if you wish to disconnect a number or dial a new number.
3. Pressing the switchhook for too long may disconnect your first call connection. Pressing it too quickly may not activate Three-Way Calling. If this happens, simply press the switchhook again.
4. You may use Three-Way Calling to add another person, no matter who placed the first call. However, if you hang up, the other two people will disconnect.
5. Call Waiting does not work during a Three-Way Call.
6. After using Three-Way Calling, you should wait at least four seconds before making another call.
7. When the three-way call includes long distance, you pay only for the call(s) you make.
8. Three-Way Calling is offered on a pay-per-use basis in some areas for 75¢ per use.

Complementary Services
