When a call comes through on the same line you are using to access the Internet, the name and number of the person calling will be displayed in a window on your computer screen. (No need Call Display Service!)

 

Then you decide what to do with the call. You now have several options:

1. Take the call after disconnecting from the Internet session.
2. Forward the call: to your Call Answer or voicemail service or to a local number (not 1-800-XXXXXXX or other long distance number!)
3. Play a pre-record (not you! It's Bell's) message for the caller to hear: "I'll call you back" or "Call me back later"

If the call is ignored, the call will be forwarded to Call Answer/voice mail (if so equipped); otherwise, the caller will receive a message saying the party is unavailable.

 

Regular Call Display and Call Waiting services are not prerequisites for Internet Call Display.

 

 

Pagoo delivers 'Voice to the Web' through its notification (including ICQ notify, Pager notify, etc.), voice recording and playback technologies that integrate the telephony system with the Internet. It cost $5 per month.

 

Pagoo Call Catcher requires is for the subscriber to set up ‘Call-forward-on-busy’ with their local phone company so that calls that would normally receive a busy signal are sent to the Pagoo system where a message is taken and sent to the Pagoo subscriber.

 

If you are surfing on Internet, the caller will hear you greeting that you recorded before. After leaving a message, a notification (may be from ICQ, even a Pager) pops up (but you can not pickup phone like Bell's ICD!!!) on you computer about 10 - 20 secs later. Then you know someone JUST called you , and you can play caller's voice message online.

 

If you are talking on phone (not on the Internet), the caller will hear "I'm sorry, the person you are trying to reach is using the phone; please try your call again later." . So, the caller know you are TALKING on PHONE, instead of SURFING on WEB.

 

Preparation:
1). Setup Call Forwarding On Busy to number of "18007660314"
2). Disable Call Waiting if you have.
