AT&T has offered music while the phone is ringing to the calling party (music plays instead of ring...ring..ring), but they charge what seems to be a lot for the service and it only lasts for a year, as I recall. Lots of choices of music, though. No idea about call holding, try calling AT&T. Apr 14, 2009 3:40 PM Apr 14, 2009 4:53 PM in response to PsychedelicWonders In response to PsychedelicWonders

USA Business Telephone Today conducted a survey of 30,000 callers to study the effects of hold music, or the lack of it, for a single minute. More than half the callers who were put on hold without any auditory stimulation hung up. The silence affected the rest of the group’s perception of time: More than 27 percent thought their wait time exceeded five minutes, and 18 percent thought it exceeded three minutes. Only 3 percent judged their wait time to be close to the actual one-minute timeframe. All of the callers in the study had listened to dead air for only 60 seconds.
Use your customer’s captive time on-hold wisely to share background, insight and information about your business. Answer typical questions they might ask, prepare them to be served expeditiously or build loyalty through goodwill promotions or offers.
Verbal Content – generally, you should use 100 words to make up 1 minute of content produced with background music. In other words, one to two paragraphs per minute. The topic can range from product promotions to general company information.
