Orange Answer Waiting Music

mysticegg · 29-11-2005, 11:34

I heard about this feature from Orange.
You can hear music over the top of the 'ringing' whilst you wait for the other person to answer their phone. I think it was called Answer Waiting or something like that - can't seem to find it on the Orange site.

Anybody heard about this, know where I can find out more?

Thanks!

You can have it on T-Mobile too. They are called 'Caller Tunes'...or were called that last time i looked!

Never heard of Orange offering it though

It launched yesterday and it looks like there are teething problems. I tried to add a caller tune yesterday but it told me there are technical difficulties and they are being worked on. A friend has it on T-mobile and it does look quite good.

Cool. Thanks for that - will have a look!

3 also have it, and call it 'Dial Tunes'. The only thing I don't like about it is that the caller doesn't hear the 'ring-ring', just the tune, so the first time they hear it they sometimes think they've either got an answerphone or that you've answered and you're playing music down the phone to them..

On orange and T-mobile you hear the ring as well as the music so people don't think they are on hold.

Is it a free service on Orange and can all users get it? ie: PAYG & Monthly

These Call Tunes are pretty good, any idea if Vodafone or
nO2 will be offering them too?
