Ask before you hold. Never longer than three minutes.

HOLDS

  • Always ask before placing on hold: do you mind if I put you on hold for a moment? Wait for the answer.
  • Do not leave anyone on hold longer than 60 seconds. If it is going to be longer, take their number, call them back.
  • Come back to the line: thank you for holding, what can I do for you?
