Abstract

A calling party is connected to a system of a called party without the calling party reaching the called party. A call diversion is triggered when a request to access a call diversion application is received. In response to receiving the request, the call diversion application at the direct-to-diverted call completion service server initiates a first call and a second call to a called party. The call diversion application detects when the second call is connected to a call completion system. In response to detecting when the second call is connected to a call completion system, the first call is terminated.
