Ooma Forums

I am a premier customer & have a single line phone and would like to use 3 way calling. How can I make a 3 way call? Thank you.

Thanks but it explains how to do 3 way call with OOMA Hub. My question is how do I make a 3 way call from a cordless phone like i can with other VOIP carriers?

From my cordless phone:
1. I make a call
2. Once the call is answered I press FLASH button on my phone to get a fresh dialtone
3. Make a second call
4. Once the call is answered I press FLASH button again. At this point I am supposed to have made a 3-way connection but with OOMA I drop the second call I made and return to the original call.

I do not want to use OOMA hub for a 3-WAY call since the HUB is not near me. Any ideas?

Right now, the only way to make a 3-way call is through an ooma device (in the future we may support 3 way calls via cordless handsets).

Very disappointed. Thank you for your post.

I'll live with it, considering my phone service is FREE!

I have the hub and the scout connected to wireless phones. Last night I called one relative on one line and my wife called her mom on the second line. Then, like the directions say, I pushed both line buttons at the same time and Voila three way calling. Worked like a champ. You just need one call from the scout and one from the hub. Everything has limits but this is pretty darn easy if you're willing to walk to the devices. If you aren't then too bad.

Is this STILL the reality of 3-way calling with Ooma?

I'm 'testing' and my equipment is in a basement utility room. The house has a Panasonic DECT 6.0 2 Line system and I had read that it worked fine with Ooma (flash key - dialtone - make call - flash back to connect 3 way call).

Ooma just started working for me a couple of hours abo (some kind of Ooma outage had my connection down). So, I need to figure this out. 3-way calling is a must for me.

Yes, that's still the only way it works right now. You can use a hub or scout to make a 3 way call.

I know this is an old thread, but I assume the only 3 way calling will work with the Hub is if you have a Premier subscription. Any way of doing this without Premier?
