- As far as I know, our PBX never gives voice intercepts (but it is very
- fond of reorder). Also, the intercept does have the standard SIT
- tones.
-
- The problem only occurs if I try and dial it as a normal PacBell call,
- that is, by dialing 9 for an outside line, then 1-213-663-xxxx. If I
- dial it via our long-distance network, or via MCI or Sprint, it works
- fine.
