2 lines on one phone

Does anybody have any helpful information regarding putting 2 lines on one phone?

Here's the situation:
I have a loved one in prison.  I do not have a land line and cell phones do
not accept collect calls.  But there is a company that allows you to open
an account, put money on the account, and they route prison calls to your
cell phone.  Here's the problem, it costs up the yang for each call; partly
due to the area code on my phone and the area code from where the calls are
coming from.  I was hoping to find better affordable alternative.  Any
advice?

  • Using "All Calls" button for multiple lines on one phone

    I have several executive assistants that have multiple lines for executives that they answer calls for. We have added the "All Calls" button so they don't accidentally make outbound call using one of the executives lines. When the All Calls button is selected, all outbound calls are made using line 1. However, when a call comes in on one of the executives lines it doesn't show the name and number of the calling party unless you select the line.
    How can we make it so the name and number show on the inbound call while having the "All Calls" button selected?

    Little confused still by this, just want to make sure I'm clear.  My current set up with Asterisk is you make users which are extensions, and then enable voicemail on them, so for example:
    Extension 300 - Voicemail enabled
    Extension 301 - Voicemail enabled
    Extension 302 - No Voicemail
    Etc.  And it's there that you set the username/password for each extension.  So on a SIP phone, under Line 1 registration I'd have it register Extension 300, and line 2 could register Extension 301 and so on.  If someone calls extension 300, line 1 rings and if no answer goes to the voicemail box for 300.  If someone calls Extension 301, then line 2 on the phone rings and if no answer goes to voicemail for Line 2.
    I do understand what you mean how each phone is it's own "User", and so the way I have it set up now is my 7970 is my user, and it has Extension 300 with voicemail assigned to Button 1 which works fine.
    I just simply need a way so that Extension 301 shows up on Button 2 on the phone, so that I can select that line to make an outbound call (with a different caller ID), and if someone calls Extension 301, then that line on my phone with also ring, BUT will go to the voicemail box for 301.  I don't need my 7970 to light up that there's a vm or anything like that, it just needs to capture the vm.
    If I make a floating extension or extension mobility for a new user with extension 301 and enable voicemail, then calling 301 does go to its voicemail box, but I'm just not sure how I would have that show up on my 7970 as line 2 and ring on there and make outbound calls on there as well.  Thank you so much!

  • Is it possible to have multiple lines on a phone but only have one of the number ring on that phone?

    I have a client who has four number on his phone. Extension 4709 is the clients number. He also has 4715,4725 and 4712 on his phone. Is it possible to make it so only 4709 will ring on his phone? The client is running CME 10.0
    New here and new CME so any help would be greatly appreciated

    Hi Joseph,
    This would be configured using the "button" (s=silent separator) command;

    button
    To associate ephone-dns with individual buttons on a Cisco Unified IP phone and to specify line type or ring behavior, use the button command in ephone configuration mode. To remove an ephone-dn association from a button, use the no form of this command.
    button button-number {separator} dn-tag [,dn-tag...] [button-number{x}overlay-button-number] [button-number...]
    no button button-number {separator} dn-tag [,dn-tag...] [button-number{x}overlay-button-number] [button-number...]
    Syntax Description
    button-number
    Number of a line button on a Cisco Unified IP phone that is to be associated with an extension (ephone-dn). The maximum number of button-ephone-dn pairs is determined by the phone type. Note The Cisco Unified IP Phone 7910G has only one physical line button, but you can assign it two button-ephone-dn pairs.
    separator
    Single character that denotes the characteristics to be associated with this phone button. Valid entries are as follows: •: (colon)—Normal ring. For incoming calls on this extension, the phone produces audible ringing, a flashing icon in the phone display, and a flashing red light on the handset. On the Cisco IP Phone 7914 Expansion Module, a flashing yellow light also accompanies incoming calls. •b—Beep but no ring. Audible ring is suppressed for incoming calls, but call-waiting beeps are allowed. Visible cues are the same as those described for a normal ring. •c—Call waiting. Provides call waiting for secondary calls to an overlaid ephone-dn. See also the o keyword. •f—Feature ring. Differentiates incoming calls on a special line from incoming calls on other lines on the phone. The feature-ring cadence is a triple pulse, as opposed to a single pulse for normal internal calls and a double pulse for normal external calls.
    •m—Monitor mode for a shared line. Visible line status indicates whether the line is in-use or not. Monitored lines cannot be used on this phone for incoming or outgoing calls. •o—Overlay line. Multiple ephone-dns share a single button, up to a maximum of 25 on a button. See also the c keyword. •s—Silent ring. Audible ring and call-waiting beep are suppressed for incoming calls. The only visible cue is a flashing ((< icon in the phone display. Note In Cisco IOS Release 12.4(4)XC and later releases, the silent ringing behavior is overridden during active night-service periods. Silent ringing does not apply during designated night-service periods when the s keyword is used. •w—Watch mode for all lines on the phone for which this directory number is the primary line. Visible line status indicates whether watched phone is idle or not.
    dn-tag
    Ephone-dn tag that was previously defined using the ephone-dn command. When used with the c and o keywords, the dn-tag argument can contain up to 25 individual dn-tags, separated by commas.
    x
    Separator that creates an overlay rollover button. When the overlay button specified in this command is occupied by an active call, a second call to one of its ephone-dns will appear on this button. This button is also known as an overlay expansion button.
    overlay-button-number
    Number of the overlay button that should overflow to this button.

  • Can't send e-mail on one phone, but can on another

    I got two iphones - one for myself and one for my wife. We have a family plan, and I set mine up first and hers second. Amongst the problems:
    1. I can receive calls and she can't. The phones were activated at 1830 and 1845 on 6/30. I got the text message that my phone could receive calls at 0915 on 7/1. AT&T help line said her phone could not receive calls because 1) the old phone was still on (actually, both of our old phones were still on), and 2) I had not completed the syncing process by downloading music and photos (contacts had been synced) - I thought this was bull, as did the Apple Geniuses. Needless to say, I've tried their fixes for the above and it still doesn't work.
    2. My wife (with a different .mac account) can't send any e-mails from her phone. She gets an error message that her e-mail was refused by the server "Cannot Send Mail - The sender address [email protected] was rejected by the server". We have Comcast ISP. My e-mails get sent from my phone and get through fine. She can view her e-mails in her box, however, they do not load (we get the spinning dashes). This was fixed when we did a soft reboot, but it happened again.
    2a - How do I try to re-send the e-mail that is in the Outbox? I can view it, but it won't let me re-send it...
    Thanks!

  • Used to be family plan, but now I'm down to one phone. What happens?

    << New discussion due to age of previous thread >>
    I have a similar question.  I'm on a family plan with 3 lines, all out of contract.  I want to get down to 1 line, but also upgrade my phone.
    Will the upgrade force me to go into a different plan for an individual and also a new or extended contract, or can I just drop the two lines, upgrade the primary line and keep my rate for the 1 line as it is now?
    Message was edited by: Verizon Moderator

        Hi Sodinator,
    I'm sorry to see that you're planning to leave Verizon with the two lines. If you'd like to keep the two lines out of contract but with service, there isn't any obligation of renewing service for those two. You can upgrade just the one line and get an updated phone but the family plan remains the same. If you'd rather take care of it all at once, I encourage you to disconnect the two lines on the last day of the cycle to avoid partial minutes from being alloted. You'll want to check the name of the family plan you're on as current customers can stay on Nationwide plans but move to a different rate for the one line. Follow the steps below to complete the change.
    1. Sign in to My Verizon.
    2. Locate the I Want To... section.
    3. In the PLAN column, click Change Minutes, Text or Data. The Select a plan to change page displays.
    4. Select the Share Plan which includes the line(s) to be split to an Individual plan.
    Note: If there is only one plan on the account this step does not display.
    5. Click Next. The Voice, Messaging and Data options display.
    6. Select the Split Share Plan link. The Select Lines window displays the Share Plan lines.
    7. Select the line(s) you want to split from the Share Plan.
    8. Click Next. Voice, Messaging and Data options display for the line (or one of the lines) being split.
    9. Select options for the following:
    Voice
    Messaging
    Data
    10. The New Plan Total updates based on your selections. Click Next.
    11. If necessary, review/update optional features and services. A message at the bottom of the page indicates incompatible features automatically removed. Click Next.
    11. Select Effective Date. Click Continue.

  • Trouble with one phone and its ADSL splitter

    I have three phones and ADSL splitters and a BB hub on my system and today after an incoming phone call with some interference on the line, I lost my dialling tone after putting down the receiver and picking it up again.
    To cut a long story short, I went around the three phones and realised that one ADSL filter was giving this fault whenever I used that one, with any of my phones and so, temporarily, I have removed what I think is the offending ADSL filter and one phone and am going to get another new filter to see whether my theory of a duff filter is correct.
    Is it common for relatively new filters to fail or give problems like this? Of course I shan't know until the new splitter arrives from Amazon next week. Until then, I have now just two phones and their respective ADSL splititers connected with the BB hub on one of them.

    filters can fail anytime just hope you have solved the problem.  if it was possible you could have fitted a filtered faceplate and done away with all filters.  only restriction is router must be connected to master socket

  • Can I have 2 lines on this phone?

    Is it possible to combine my 2 lines into this one phone so I only have to carry one phone? I have a Steller and a Galaxy S5, and would like to get a new phone number for the steller but want to keep the old line and transfer it to my new phone, is this even possible?

    Some apps like the former yuliop and Viber will assign you an alternate phone number. You can also call forward calls from another line to your phone.

  • Multiple extensions on one phone?

    So I got the UC540 today and have it all set up, was very easy thought it would be worse.  All is working fine, SIP trunks etc, have a few minor things to play with but all is well so far.  I just can't figure out how to properly put 2 extensions on one phone or how you do that?
    I have 2 companies that I work for under my phone system.  With Asterisk and the phones on SIP, line 1 would be one extension and line 2 would be another.  Each has a diff DID and diff voicemail box.  I set up my one 7970 phone with extension 300 and voicemail and it works fine, but I need extension 400 to be line 2 with it's own voicemail.  I tried in CCA going to phones and users, and under line 2 adding extension 400, but as soon as I check the box voicemail to enable it, it removes it from line 300.  Line 2 isn't used as much, so it doesn't need to function the exact same way as line 1 does, just not sure how to best do it, if I should use a floating extension or if I'm missing something, at a loss here.  Thanks!

    Little confused still by this, just want to make sure I'm clear.  My current set up with Asterisk is you make users which are extensions, and then enable voicemail on them, so for example:
    Extension 300 - Voicemail enabled
    Extension 301 - Voicemail enabled
    Extension 302 - No Voicemail
    Etc.  And it's there that you set the username/password for each extension.  So on a SIP phone, under Line 1 registration I'd have it register Extension 300, and line 2 could register Extension 301 and so on.  If someone calls extension 300, line 1 rings and if no answer goes to the voicemail box for 300.  If someone calls Extension 301, then line 2 on the phone rings and if no answer goes to voicemail for Line 2.
    I do understand what you mean how each phone is it's own "User", and so the way I have it set up now is my 7970 is my user, and it has Extension 300 with voicemail assigned to Button 1 which works fine.
    I just simply need a way so that Extension 301 shows up on Button 2 on the phone, so that I can select that line to make an outbound call (with a different caller ID), and if someone calls Extension 301, then that line on my phone with also ring, BUT will go to the voicemail box for 301.  I don't need my 7970 to light up that there's a vm or anything like that, it just needs to capture the vm.
    If I make a floating extension or extension mobility for a new user with extension 301 and enable voicemail, then calling 301 does go to its voicemail box, but I'm just not sure how I would have that show up on my 7970 as line 2 and ring on there and make outbound calls on there as well.  Thank you so much!

  • Trying to take one phone off my account

  • Cancel one phone and get started with internet for the house

    I have 2 phones on my account one for and and the other for my wife, now we work together and pretty much using one phone so im paying for 2 phones while only using one.
    I want to just get rid of that phone on my account and start up Internet at our new home so im actually paying for something instead of wasting.
    how do i go about that do i still pay a cancellation fee for the 2nd phone to?

    James_M
    Thanks so much for visiting the community to post your question.
    You said you are looking to get internet,  Are you looking to get one of our USB Modems or highspeed internet at home?
    If you are looking to just cancel one phone line, it absolutely can be done. If you are still under contact with the one line you want to cancel, then there will be an ETF (early termination fee).
    If there is an ETF on the line of service that you are looking to cancel, you may be able to check with friends or family members to see if anyone is looking to take over the line and put it in their name which is called an Assumption of Liability.
    An AOL (assumption of liability) change (formerly known as: name change, transfer of liability, billing responsible party change, etc.) is the process of transferring an account's financial liability from an existing Account Owner to another Account Owner.

  • Deceptive Shipping pratices for orders of more then one phone

    Verizon basically cheated anyone if they bought more then one phone. I had the issue associated with the discounts, so I was unable to get my order though till 2:45 central. I ordered 2 phones one sliver 16gb 6 and one gold 16gb 6+. They Sliver 6 said deliver on 9/19 and the 6+ was 10/15. I was upset that it would be delayed cause of the errors on Verizon end but still wanted to save my place in line so I ordered. I considered splitting the order but didn't want to be delayed again. What I'm most upset about is even after confirming with Verizon that I would still receive my 6 on 9/19 I did not. I'm now being told that they can not separate the order and they have to be shipped together. This is a very deceptive practice and it basically gave them another iPhone to sell on opening day. Imagine waiting in line to buy two phones but them selling one of the phones you wanted to someone in line behind you cause they didn't have the other in stock. I fully understand that this was an extremely popular phone but to not have the most basically shipping practices is unacceptable. It is also not right that I was lied to about the shipping practices before launch day. I'm hoping that Verizon will be willing to do something to make this right but I expect a canned answer directing me to the order status page.

    unfortunately, there is no option or feature yet in Skype which allow users to login in one computer or device only at a time.

    Dear Subrat,
    you cannot create a yearly schedule line in the scheduling agreement. It is not possible due to format restrictions of the date field. But what you can do is the follows (it is the modification, but it should work with the help of user-exits):
    1. You can split the year schedule line to the monthly schedule lines. There are two ways to do it. If you apply the DELINS IDOC, then you can do it already during transfer of the data to the application (itr is the best way). Here you can use, for example, user-exit USEREXIT_ZUORDNEN_IDOCS (include LVED4FZZ) or customer function EXIT_SAPLVED4_002, called from the subroutine USEREXIT_DYNPRO (Include LVED4F0U). Alternatively, you can use the user-exit USEREXIT_MOVE_FIELD_TO_VBEP (Include MV45AFZZ) within the call transaction, then it will work also in the dialog case.
    2. After getting the monthly schedule lines, you can create a planning delivery schedule, where you can split mothly schedule lines automatically to daily schedule lines according to the customer factory calender.The settings for generation of planning delivery schedules can be found under:
    Customizing SPRO: Sales and Distribution => Sales => Sales Documents => Scheduling Agreements with Delivery schedules => Maintain Planning Delivery Sched. Instruct./Splitting Rules
    It is the only ways, how you can reach your aim. I hope, this information will help you further.

    To disable that feature it will depend on whether or not you sync everything in the cloud using Apple's iCloud, OR if you both use the same desktop/laptop computer with iTunes.

  • How do I move vznavigator favorites from one phone to another?

    how do I move vznavigator favorites from one phone to another?
    Wife has Pre 2 where GPS works beautiful... my old Pre Plus was always hit or miss on GPS.
    But I've developed quite a library of favorites on my Plus.  How do I move these to our new Pre 2?

    Good afternoon CWFlink.
    I am a fan of the VZ Navigator myself, and all of the great features of this application!  Is the Palm Pre 2 on the same number as the Palm Pre Plus?  If yes, you can synchronize your Favorites through our website at the following link: VZ Navigator  
    You will sign in using your My Verizon login information, and sync the Settings and Favorites to your new device.  However, if your Favorites are on a different mobile number, you will have to manually enter in the information/ settings.  I still encourage you to use the website to set everything up as you like, in case you need to change devices in the future.
    I trust this information is helpful.
