thesaint sfc Posted 23 June, 2010 Share Posted 23 June, 2010 I've got a couple of customers who have a different ring when you phone them! One when you phone them it rings like normal but you hear only fools and horses theme tune over the top, and the other you hear wolf noises when you ring them! Does anyone know how to do this?

Pancake Posted 23 June, 2010 Share Posted 23 June, 2010 Ring noise? A fart you mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesaint sfc Posted 23 June, 2010 Author Share Posted 23 June, 2010 When you phone them you get the usual ring tone, but with only fools and horses playing in the background - not an answerphone or anything like that - they can then just answer the phone as normal....

Pancake Posted 23 June, 2010 Share Posted 23 June, 2010 Sorry for the silliness of my other post. Is this when you phone a company? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesaint sfc Posted 23 June, 2010 Author Share Posted 23 June, 2010 Nope - just someone on their mobile phone. I'm trying to think of what to type in google but really struggling! It's literally - you dial in their mobile number the phone starts ringing, then after a couple of rings you can hear sound effects in the background - the two I've heard are only fools and horses theme and someone making wolf noises.

thesaint sfc Posted 23 June, 2010 Author Share Posted 23 June, 2010 Progress at last! They're called answertones. Seem to be a bit of a hit in the US - we're still a bit behind the times so I don't think most people have heard about them http://www.answertones.wireless.att.com/AT/HTML/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thesaint sfc Posted 23 June, 2010 Author Share Posted 23 June, 2010 Looks like they've gotta be approved by your carrier - only 3, T-Mobile & Orange appear to support them in the UK. I'm an O2 customer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Bates Posted 23 June, 2010 Share Posted 23 June, 2010 They've been around for years. Used to get alot of them when I was phoning around looking for Labourers for jobs, some are pretty damn awful whilst some you can't get enough of. I'd sometimes hide my ID then phone people just to listen to them, how sad I was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would quite like the only fools and horses one, but I'd have to trial it. I'd probably get ****ed off with people asking me how I'd managed it. Doesn't look like O2 support it though.
