How Does a Hotline Work?

A hotline is a point-to-point communications link in which a call is automatically directed to the preselected destination without any additional action by the user when the end instrument goes off-hook. An example would be a phone that automatically connects to emergency services on picking up the receiver.

How do I use a hotline number?

+63 + 2 + 8-Digit Landline Number

For example, you want to call 8920-6446 in Quezon City. Since its area code is 2, just dial +63-2-8920-6446.

How much does a hotline cost?

A good rule of thumb is that the cost of a hotline service should be around $1 per employee per year.
