Mobile Techie Question

Does anyone know if it is actually possible for one mobile to call another, put that call on holld, then make a second call from the original mobile to the same mobile number that you are already on hold to, and be billed for the 2 calls (i.e. both calls are 'open')???? I know you can do some very clever things with mobiles at the mo but that seems a step to far!!
many thanks

    Pressing the Call button puts the current call on hold.
    Re-dialing the same number will get you through to the voicemail to say the number is busy.

    Some billing issues (notability when roaming) can 'look like' 2 calls at the same time or very closely and overlapping, but that's just the way the billing info is logged...
