What you described below is exactly what is happening. The business units do not want to prompt the customer for the option to take the survey. They would like 100% of the calls to be sent to the survey. This does sound exactly like a consultative transfer but in the desktop admin it actually says blind transfer as the option which is why the results are unexpected. The time window is between 1.5 and 2 seconds.
