Patent number: 9992340Abstract: A communication device is provided for enabling a user to establish an automated call back from a communication system, such as a call center, for example. A software device application enables the communication device to communicate with the call center through the exchange of data. The communication device includes a display screen for displaying controls for allowing the user to interact with the communication system. The controls allow the user to request a list of providers from which to select a provider or company to contact. The communication device further provides controls for allowing the user to select a queue to join from a list of queues associated with the selected provider. An embodiment may also communicate contextual data between a communication device and a communication system, including information associated with the user of the communication device and information used to assist, instruct, or solve a user's problem.Type: GrantFiled: July 14, 2016Date of Patent: June 5, 2018Assignee: Virtual Hold Technology, LLCInventors: Mark J. Williams, Eric I. Camulli, Larry Miner, Rob Brazier
