Queue Callback
Queue callback thatholds their place,not the line.
Callers keep their spot in the queue and hang up. Teloz rings them back when an agent is free, so no hold music, no redialing and calmer conversations.

Est. wait ~8 min
On the phone
All agents are busy. Press 1 to keep your place and get a callback.
The offer
One key press, and the caller is free
When the wait grows long, callers choose: keep holding, or keep their place and get a call back. The offer is short, the choice is clear and neither option is pushed.

“All agents are busy. Press 1 to keep your place and get a call back, or stay on the line.”
- A brief offer that explains the choice
- A saved place that keeps advancing
- An agent already free when the phone rings
Why it works
Same wait. Very different afternoon.
A caller on hold is tied to the phone for the whole wait, and their patience runs out first. With a callback the wait is the same length, but the time is theirs.
On hold
Stuck on the line. Hang up and redial, and the place is lost.
Callback
Free to get on with the day. The place keeps moving up.
When it helps
The moments a long queue hurts most
Queue spikes
After an outage, a launch or a busy day, callbacks shorten the line without callers giving up and ringing again.

Full teams
A gentler option than spilling over to other teams or voicemail, so callers stay with the team they need.
Right team, every time
- Caller A, place saved
- Caller B, place saved
- Caller C, place saved
- VIP customer, served first
Priority customers
Callbacks work alongside VIP and priority routing, so urgent and high-value customers are still served first.
VIPs still first

A closed office is not a closed door
Choose what happens when someone calls outside business hours. Hours, holidays and locations are handled by your routing rules.

Closed now
Open 08:00 to 18:00
Callback booked for 08:00. The caller does not need to redial.
Call back with context
The agent already knows the story
When the callback connects, the agent sees earlier contacts across voice and messaging, so the caller never repeats their account details.
