Transferring calls
You can transfer connected calls as well as calls ringing on your phone.
• When you have a call on the line, there are two ways to transfer it to a third party:
◦ Announcing the call to the third party first, to make sure the call is welcome and will be
accepted: Attended transfer;
◦ Transferring the call unannounced: Blind transfer. There will be no feedback on whether the
third party is available and/or picking up the call.
• When a call is ringing on your phone, you can transfer it to a third party without answering it first
(blind transfer only).
