TotalUser,

Thanks for the reply. I was able to find the pause character from the settings as you mentioned. I was used to using the * and  # signs for pause and wait, but that kept being rejected by the TALK service, saying that I did not have VOICE enabled for my account (or something like that).

Anyway,  thanks you for your quick response, it is working now.

Ole.

So pause is a preset duration then?

 

I recall something in my past that paused until you restarted it...with the send button I think.

With pause, the phone waits until you do what to start it dialing again? Hit Send again?

It should dial through without further action.

Save the phone number with "pause" before the extension.


The "pause" command is accessed by pressing * a bunch of times on many or most devices.

Dial the pause command (p) after the number and then extension. Save in contact list.

Which phone and dialer are you using

There should be settings or 3 dots someplace

Sometimes it's just left off the 0 

In my case I have it to the right of the enter lineScreenshot_20191015-174211.png

I can't add 3 sec pause but I can add two 2 sec ones.
