Call Minder is a network-based messaging service. This exchange based service answers calls and records messages on no reply (time can be selected by the CP) or if engaged. You can record your own greeting message and up to 30 messages can be stored – the maximum message length is 5 minutes. If a message has been recorded while the line is engaged, Call Minder will call you at 10 minute intervals up to 60 minutes and invite you to listen to the message. Interrupted dial tone will alert you to a waiting message. After listening, the message can be heard again, saved or deleted. Call Minder can be accessed remotely to retrieve messages, to change service options such as the number of rings before answer, personal greetings and PIN. (For security, a PIN can only be changed from the home line). You dial your telephone number (normal call charges apply) then enter a PIN during the greeting message. Having used the security PIN you have access to the mailbox menus as if you were calling 1571 directly from your home telephone. Instructions for use Accessing from your phone After dialling 1571 you will be advised that you have x new messages and y saved messages. In the main menu you will be able to press 1 to listen to messages, press 2 for personal options or press 4 for missed calls.

After the return call is completed you will be returned to the post message review options. After pressing 0 to select Call Return, you may press # at any time to terminate the returned call and be returned to the Message Review menu (or missed call menu, as appropriate) in the same way as for the called party clearing the call.
