Maybe I should call again?
I didn't do this by calling, but when I checked in online -- no human contact involved. I believe if you were not calling within 24 hours of your original flight, you wouldn't be offered the standby. If you were within 24 hours of your original flight, perhaps you should try it on the online checkin or just call back.
