Zoom Call Transfers Ringing all Call Queue members desk phones

We have a Call Queue on our account that has 3 members who answer any calls that come in to that queue. They are experiencing a weird issue when they go to transfer a phone call to an internal user - all 3 members in the Call Queue will have their desk phones (Polycom VVX 501) ring simultaneously and the member transferring the call will also have their phone ring like there is a call incoming but no display on the desk phone. They also mention that whenever internal users call each other on Zoom, their desk phones will ring as well.

 

I have done numerous testing with this to determine the cause but I can't seem to find the solution. I have tried adding myself to Call Queue and see if my Zoom apps ring as above (nothing), I have checked call logs in Zoom admin portal and did not find any issues with call flow as stated. 

I am unsure if this is a phone setting or a Call Queue setting that I am missing.

 

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Any additional information needed, I can add!

 

Thank you so much~!

Resolved! App no longer says who answered a call queue, just "Accepted by others"

Hi all -- our users are complaining that at least in the latest iOS app version, they can no longer see who accepted a call in a call queue.

 

We used to see a call was answered by a specific user, like "Accepted by Mike for [Queue]", now it just says "Accepted by others for [Queue Name]".

 

Is there a way to get the old behavior back, or a setting we can toggle?

 

Here's what we currently see:

With the new fax feature (very exciting!), I had a question:
I see that I can send a fax using a number assigned to a Call Queue, but it seems like I can't receive faxes to a Call Queue number. Is there a way to set up a fax inbox for numbers assigned to a Call Queue, or is fax receiving limited only to individual user numbers for now?

MISSED CALLS NOT SHOWING

Notification for shared line groups while busy on personal line

Hello all,
I have a question regarding Zoom Phone: I have a personal line (A), and can also receive calls on multiple call queues (B) (C) (D). However, it appears I do not get any notification regarding an incoming call or options to handle incoming calls on the queues if I am currently busy on my personal line. I can still receive incoming calls for the call queues if I am not busy. Would it be possible on my end for me to receive notifications for incoming call queues while I am busy on my personal line, or is this something only the admin can do? Thanks all!

Hi! I wanted to know if there is a way to turn off the Call Monitoring disclaimer for inbound calls. I want to keep them for outbound calls. We currently mention call monitoring and recording on the custom greeting we have so we would like to remove the disclaimer on the inbound calls.

 

I could not find this setting and if not it should be included as a fix in future updates.

Resolved! Zoom Phone Call Queue - Automatic Removal on OOO/PTO Not Functioning

Problem:

We utilize a Zoom Phone call queue for our team, with availability set from Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM. We've encountered an issue where users remain in the call queue rotation even when they are marked as "Out of Office" (OOO) or on Paid Time Off (PTO).

Specifically:

  • Users set OOO or PTO in Google Calendar, which syncs with Zoom, correctly updating their Zoom status.
  • However, these users continue to receive call queue calls.
  • The Zoom documentation states that enabling "Allow queue members to set their own Business Hours" should prevent calls from routing to members outside their business hours.
  • This feature is not functioning as described. Despite enabling it, users still receive calls while on OOO/PTO.
  • Currently, the only solution is for users to manually remove themselves from the call queue.

Question:

Has anyone experienced this issue with Zoom Phone call queues? Is there a reliable method to automatically remove users from the call queue rotation when they are marked as OOO or on PTO, as the documentation suggests?

Hello,

 

We currently have a Call Queue set up with 3 users. However, these users have varying availability hours to take calls (e.g., 7am-10am, 2pm-5pm, etc.). How can we go about making sure that the calls are only routed to available users? Does this happen automatically if the user were to set their availability hours under Phone > Call Handling? This is a little tricky, because the users are available for all other types of call between 7-5, but they just only monitor the call center during select hours. Is there a way to attach availability to calls that come in through the Call Queue specifically? What about the Opt-Out function? Would that be useful here?

 

Thank you so much!

Kind Regards

Hello,

We have a call center with federal requirements to provide anonymous support for our hotline callers.  Is there a way to remove the caller ID or prevent it from showing when it goes to a call queue or attendant?  Our hotline counselors and volunteers should not be able to see the caller ID from the original caller.

 

Any ideas on how this could work? In our previous system we forwarded the call to another number that redirected to our call queue.  However with Zoom, we are still seeing the original caller's Caller ID.

 

Is there any way to make a custom call route that may help us do this?

 

Thank you!
