Automatic Busy Redial/Repeat Call

Automatic Busy Redial / Repeat Call checks the number every 30 seconds for up to 30 minutes until the line is no longer busy, saving you the trouble of redialing. When the line is available, your phone will sound three short rings to let you know. This feature is also available on a pay-per-use or subscription basis in most markets.
