Against this background, also the subject of the free hold was once more subject to public discussion of policy and consumer protection agencies. Currently regulations complicate providing the Federal Network Agency but continuously for the caller of free queues. The QuestNet GmbH advises therefore by dynamic queues, and, if necessary, limitations to limit the cost for the caller to a minimum.

A Carrierswitch could simulate similar to a hold a free tariff announcement, only for a very limited time”, explains Thomas Wendt, Director of QuestNet GmbH from Cottbus.

On mobile phone calls, however, the tariffs immediately the conversation beginning Mobile network operator due. Thus this solution on the landline is limited.” Thomas Wendt therefore advises to use existing technologies to waiting times using dynamic queues and, where appropriate, to reduce limitations with subsequent processes such as announcements or VoiceBox and permanently to monitor the volume of callers.
