If somebody is occupying Line 1 on Phone "A", if Phone "B" tries to pick on line 1 will that work? Or does the phone give a beep that its in use? Thx

No. You can have a conference call but you can't have both phone "a" and phone "b" on line 1 without it being a conference call. If someone is using line 1 and line 2 rings you do hear a beep. Be careful though. I had to return these phones twice due to having issues with speaker phone.

If you are on the system phones, only one person can be on that line. However, if you have other phones not on the system with the same line, then two of you can be. If the call is for person A and person B answers it, put on hold and answer on other line. Reading the other messages, I didn't see the conference button. Good advice. I read about the speaker phone issues and I haven't had a problem with that.

There's no beep. The call will just be interrupted by the other person trying to use line A also. There will be a red light to indicate that the line is in use...

One of the buttons is to answer a call when you hear the beep that indicates that you have one. I believe one button is to disconnect a call when you are finished. I can't tell you which one is which because I just do it by feel, never look at them. Just try them out to see what they do.

I am ready to junk my Uniden TRU9466 because it will not ring a distinctive ring for line 2. Nor, will it answer line 2 when it is ringing when I press the "answer" button. I have to manually select line 2 in order to answer it. I have had numerous email exchanges with their tech support and have not been able to resolve the line 2 issues.

yes, my wife has picked up a call in the kitchen and yelled into me in the office to pick up the phone. When I do so there is the caller talking to me. The main phone station and all phones receive all incoming phone calls.

The main line has an answering Device...not the second one in this picture. But you would need the main line anyway. Good luck.. JB

I haven't ever tried to do this, but I can find nothing in the instructions that addresses it. My guess would be that you could not block other handsets from coming onto the line.

As pm says: Verizon only, push 1 button to choose whom to call, then push yes button to call. Works pretty good for the elderly as well.

Hi. Glad to help. The person trying to pick The line Will receive The message "line in use" at the display.

Yes you can. We are currently set up with 4 lines and all 12 phones ring when a call comes in. If someone does not want calls to their phone, they can hit a "Do Not Disturb" button.

I have never experienced that event. However, I never got the machine to block numbers that were a nuisance. I found that having ID Caller on my phone to identify the caller. If it is someone/thing I do not know, I do not answer. Works every time!

Plug the line from the phone base into one side and the line house line into the other. If it works it will give a signal back to all callers but only will computer systems (auto dialings) get and use the signal as a non-functional number. The one I ordered did not work. But I had one that did work for years. They do seem to fail after a lot of use.

Yes! Just pick up the extra phone....And.... Love the lighted display....the speaker also let's us know who is calling..along with their number. Best phone yet.thank you

It doesn't automatically answer either one. If you press the line that is being used then both persons can talk to the outside line. If one line is in use it is shown on the display, so you can select the other line to place a call or the busy line to share in that conversation. Overall a fantastic phone.One cool thing is you can add a speed dial on any phone and it will show and can be used by all phones.

The phone also auto seeks a line. This means that if you click to answer, you will get the line that is ringing If you want a specific line, you click on that line button.

I don't think so. It does have a "hold" button, but I don't know how you'd alert another phone to pick the call up.

The phones both have caller id and there is a "click" for the call waiting feature. I've had these phones for quite some time and they have been dependable.

Yes it does. It's not obvious, you have to press the line one or line 2 buttons.
