CALLING FEATURES

CALLING FEATURES BRING VARIETY When you think about rural telecommunications, you may assume that cooperative members have limited choices. Just the opposite is true, however, for the people served by ETEX Telephone. As part of our commitment to full-service communications, we offer a wide range of calling features.

Some features are included in your basic service package. For instance, all ETEX subscribers receive Call Waiting at no additional charge. This feature alerts you to an incoming call when you’re already on the line.

Other calling features are optional. When you select one or more of these options, you customize your telephone service to meet your individual needs. After all, things like convenience and privacy are just as important in a rural community as they are in a big city. For more information, call us at (903) 797-2711 or (903) 968-8611.
