What are Caller Tunes?

Back To Top

With Caller Tunes, you can change the ringing tone people hear when they call you on your Telecom mobile. Instead of hearing the standard ringing tone callers will hear a Caller Tune of your choice while they're waiting for you to answer.

The standard ringing tone is included unobtrusively in the background of all Caller Tunes, so callers don't think they're on hold or hearing a mailbox message.
