How to Flash Transfer a Call
Flash transferring is a method used for transferring a call when your telephone does not have a transfer option. Flash transferring is like three-way calling. Depending on your phone company, when you hang up the call, the other people on the phone could be disconnected. To prevent this, you can perform the transfer and then push your phone's hold button so that you do not have to be on the phone but the other two callers can still talk to each other. It is a good idea to check with your phone provider to see if flash transferring is available and if it will cost extra.

Tips & Warnings
Phones and phone companies vary slightly in the way that flash transfers can occur. For some flash transfers, you may have to remain on the phone or press the "Hold" button until the call is complete or else the recipients will be disconnected when you hang up the phone.
You do not have to immediately transfer a call as soon as you call someone. You may stay on the phone for a while before pressing the "Flash" button to transfer the call.
