Telephone Dialogues

Here are the 3 short telephone dialogues from yesterday's class. Do you remember which one is more informal ( = good for friends and people you know very well)?

A: Hello.
B: Hello. This is John. Is George around?
A: Yes, he is. Just a minute and I'll get him.
B: Okay. Thanks.

A: Hello.
B: Hello. Could I please speak to George?
A: Speaking.
B: Oh, hi George. It's John.

A: Hello.
B: Hello. It's John calling. Is George home?
A: Yes, he is, but he's taking a shower. Can he call you back?
B: Sure, but I'm going out in an hour.
