While you are handling a call, you may find it necessary to send your caller to a different destination.
There are four different ways you can transfer calls to users:
- Blind Transferring
- Semi-Attended Transferring
- Attended Transferring
- Transferring to Voicemail (for internal users)
Perform a Blind Transfer
If you need to transfer call to someone else, you have the option to send the call straight to that other person without speaking to them using a blind transfer.
To perform a blind, or cold, transfer…
- Tap and then Transfer during a call.
- Do one of the following:
- Type the extension or phone number you want to transfer the call to and tap Transfer.
- Tap and select the contact to transfer to.
- Tap and select the desired list. Tap the desired call log to complete the transfer.
Perform a Semi-Attended Transfer
When you are performing an attended transfer, you may find that person you are attempting to transfer a call to is unavailable. When the person taking the transfer is unavailable, you can do a semi-attended transfer by sending the caller “blindly” to the other party's mailbox or forwarding destination.
To perform a semi-attended transfer…
- Tap and then Transfer during a call.
- Do one of the following:
- Type the extension or phone number you want to transfer the call to and tap Send.
- Tap and select the contact to transfer to.

- When you hear the ringback tone, tap Transfer to finish the semi-attended transfer.
Perform an Attended Transfer
If you would like to speak with the person you will be transferring a call to, you can use an attended transfer.
To perform an attended, or warm, transfer…

- Do one of the following:
- Type the extension or phone number you want to transfer the call to and tap Send.
- Tap and select the contact to transfer to.
- Tap and select the desired list. Tap the desired call log to complete the transfer.
- After the contact answers the call, speak with them and then tap Transfer to finish the attended transfer.
Transfer to a User's Voicemailbox
During an active call, you can transfer a caller to another user's voicemailbox. This can be useful when you know that user is out of the office, or if the caller only wants to leave that user a voicemail.
To transfer a call to the voicemailbox of an internal user…
- Tap and then Transfer during a call.
- Dial the mailbox code for the other user and tap Transfer.
- For Stratus users, dial 03 and the extension number of the user.
- For Enswitch users, dial the feature code associated with the mailbox.
Quick Tip: Most accounts use 1+EXT (e.g., 1103 for dialing extension 103's mailbox) as the code for dialing into the mailboxes of other users.
