Español
BellSouth’s PID99 Call Waiting ID Telephone has been designed to provide
a clear and crisp telephone calling experience while incorporating features
that make the latest phone company services like Caller ID and Call Waiting
easier to use.
The phone combines Call Waiting with Caller ID. As with Caller ID, the
phone lets you know who is calling before you answer it. The service
displays the caller’s name and phone number, and the date and time of
each call. All caller information is stored in the order in which it was
received for up to 99 calls.
You can identify an incoming caller when you are already on the phone by
viewing the call information on the Caller ID display. You can then choose
to answer the new call or not. Call Waiting Deluxe options from BellSouth
can send the waiting caller a message asking them to hold, add the incoming
caller into your conversation, drop the existing call and answer the new
call or send the call to voice mail.

call, send the call to voice mail, drop the existing call and answer the new

When a Call Waiting call is received, by pressing this key a message is
automatically played to the waiting caller asking them to hold. When you
complete your existing conversation, you can then switch over to the Call
Waiting caller on hold.
CALL WAITING KEY
With Call Waiting, if a call comes in while you’re on the line, a brief
tone signals you that another caller is trying to get through. The brief
Call Waiting tone is easily recognizable while you’re on the phone. When
you hear it, you have the option to take the new call or not. To switch
over to the new call, just press and release the CALL WAITING button.
To switch back to the first call, press and release the CALL WAITING button
again. You can also deactivate Call Waiting on an as-needed basis – for
example, before placing an important call or connecting to the Internet.
Just hit *70 before dialing the number to ensure you are not interrupted
during the call.
JOIN CALL KEY
When a Call Waiting call is received, by pressing this key the waiting
caller is automatically joined into your existing conversation creating
a three-way call.
DROP CALL KEY
When a Call Waiting call is received, by pressing this key the existing call
will be dropped and you will be connected with the new call waiting caller.
SEND TO VOICEMAIL KEY
When a Call Waiting call is received, by pressing this key the waiting caller
is automatically routed to voice mail.
CALLER ID SERVICE
The phone is designed to be used with Caller ID service offered by BellSouth.
The caller’s information will be displayed after the first ring, provided that
you have subscribed to Caller ID service. The phone can record information
for up to 99 calls, including the time and date the call was received. The
Caller ID information is stored from the most recent to the oldest call.
If you subscribe to Call Waiting Caller ID service, when a Call Waiting call
is received, the new caller’s name and phone number will be displayed.
Note that Call Waiting Caller ID information cannot be received by the
PID99 phone if another telephone is simultaneously off-hook on the same
telephone line. If a Call Waiting call comes in when two or more people
are talking on seperate telephones in the same location, you will hear the
Call Waiting beep but the phone display will read EXT IN USE. This notifies
you that the Caller ID information was sent by the phone company but
because two or more phones were off-hook at the same time, the
information could not be displayed.
