How to Receive a Call Over a Landline
- 1). Give your landline phone number, including your area and international code if necessary, to friends and relatives.
- 2). Ensure that your landline phone is plugged in, fully charged and ready to receive calls.
- 3). Pick up the receiver when the phone rings. The call will connect immediately on some handsets, but you may need to press a button to accept the call on others. Read the instructions for your phone if you're unsure.
