Same issue here. Surface pro 2 and Bose 700NC bought in duty free so I can't even take them back. The surface laptop only has 1 USB slot so I don't want it used up by a third party USB dongle. Why is tehre not a Bose driver suit and applicationlike there is for Android\ios.

Sort it out!

I dont think Bots are looking at Solved threads.. No response from the Moderators or any support agent in a long time

This is the last time I am buying a Bose product. Disappointment is a small word in this scenario.

I get everyone's frustration. I removed my answer as a solution. It's more of a work around. It was still helpful, but yeah, if that prevented Bose from loooking further it's unfortunate.

Before I gave up, my sort-of-works config was:

Turn off BT on my phone, so the Bose headset only has a single connection.

Set the PC speakers on my Win10 machine to use anything execpt the Bose headset/headphones, again to work around the Bose headset.

Delete the Bose headset/headphones from your Win10 Settings BT page, and reconnect it.

Even with this, it's hit or miss in Teams (client app or webapp). 

I don't mess with the hardware buttons on the headset (muting, or whatever) when I'm on a call.

Basically, I'm back to using my Jabra Evolve 75 for telephony.  The Bose headphones are now just sitting in the air-travel bag -- they'll be returned if there is no fix by 

Sept 30.

Atleast in India we  do not have a return option    on online  purchase  . Really feel cheated  . Any workaround from someone else  . Does Bose rep monitor  these posts ?

Hello saurabhrai, 

Thanks for reaching out today. 

I am sorry that you are having issues returning your headset. I would highly advise speaking to the online retailer you purchased the headphones from or speaking to your local team here for more information. 

Kind Regards, 

Vicky W
