Hi James, As long as you just use Dial to call your extension, and don't use Answer the caller shouldn't be charged. That's how it appears to work here. Caller not charged: exten => s,1,Dial(SIP/sip123|tr|20) exten => s,2,Congestion Caller charged: exten => s,1,Answer exten => s,2,Dial(SIP/sip123|tr|20) exten => s,3,Congestion -Nathan _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
