Dealing with Problems on the Phone
Problems in communication
You're breaking up... I haven't got a very good signal.
Sorry, it's a really bad line.
I'm afraid I didn't catch that.
Can you speak up a bit?
Hold on while I go somewhere quieter.
I'll hang up and try again later.
Not a good time to call
Sorry, but I have someone other on the line. Can I call back?
I'm afraid I really don't have a lot of time today. Can you call again tomorrow?
I'm just on my way out. Can you call again later?
Sorry, this will have to be quick. I'm about to go into a meeting.
