Receiving Phone Calls
Answering the phone
Company ABC, this is Mike. How may I help you?
Good morning/afternoon, Company ABC. How may I help you?
Purchasing department, Frank speaking.
Note: If we are taking an external call and talking to a customer, “How
may I help you?” is common. If we are taking an internal call, we
normally do not say “How may I help you?” For internal calls, saying
your name and your department is usually sufficient.
Getting the name of the caller if he/she doesn’t give it to you
May I have your name please?
Who am I speaking with?
May I ask who’s calling?
Responding to a caller’s request
Sure, let me check on that.
Let me see if she’s available.
Sure, one moment please.
Asking someone to wait on the line
Can I put you on hold for a minute?
Do you mind holding while I check on that (or “handle that for you,” “check to see if he’s available,” etc)
Taking a message
He’s/she’s not available at the moment. Would you like to leave a message?
He’s/she’s out of the office right now. Can I take a message?
Dealing with bad connections/wrong numbers
I’m sorry, we have a bad connection. Could you give me your number and I’ll call you right back?
I think we have a bad connection. Could you speak a little louder, please?
I’m sorry, could you repeat that?
I’m sorry, you have the wrong number.
Ending the call
Is there anything else I can help you with?……Okay, thanks for calling. Have a great day. [used during external calls with customers]
Is there anything else I can do for you? …..Okay, have a good day. [more casual, used more for internal phone calls or phone calls that are not customer service calls]
