Encyclopedia > Calling party

The person who (or device that) initiates a telephone call over the public switched telephone network is the calling party. The person who (or device that) answers a telephone is the called party.


The calling party is usually the party that pays the fee for placing the call, however in reverse charge (or collect) calls this may not be the case.


When using international roaming on mobile telephones, the calling party may need to pay an extra fee for the subsequent use of the overseas network.

If for some reason the call to the third person is not completed, or you decide not to add the third party to the call (for example, the person you want to talk with happens not to be in), depress the switchhook twice to resume your conversa­tion with the person on hold.
Calls from phone numbers not contained on your list are sent to an announcement that informs the caller that you are not receiving calls at this time.
The Calling Identity on Call Waiting Feature, or Call Waiting ID, causes the identity of the calling party in a waiting call to be displayed on your caller ID equipment before you put the first caller on hold, unless the identity of the calling party is private or is unavailable for display.
