Subject: [asterisk-users] Queue(): How to know Estimated wait time forcaller
in advance

 

Hi,

Can we know the estimated wait time for a caller before sending him in a
Queue?
Asterisk 1.8

Thanks,

--AM

Don't know how this would work, but it seems you could put a "local" call
into the queue with mixmonitor just to get the announcement of wait time,
then do an IVR where you playback the wait time from the local call and give
the caller the option of jumping in or calling back or leaving a message.
