Call Return, in telephony, is a popular calling feature that automatically dials the last number that called in. The user may dial *69 to use it. In many telephone companies there are two ways of having it: whether have it included in the package or as a pay per use feature.
In Canada, the feature is commonly marketed by telephone companies as a combination of two features:
- Call Again allows a caller, on reaching a busy signal, to hang up, dial a special code, and be called back automatically when the called number is no longer busy, usually with a limit of 30 minutes.
- Call Return allows a customer to dial a code that identifies the last incoming call. On some types of central office equipment, it announces the number and offers the call-back option; on others, it simply attempts a connection without an announcement.
