However, if you call CS OR check your schedule in iCrew, and no trip is present, you immediately revert back to “promptly available” (“2ish”hours) from that moment.

Once you check and determine no assignment was issued, it's at that point you return to promptly available. If you call scheduling to let them know you're in position prior to the 2 hour mark or check your schedule inside the two hours and there is nothing on your schedule, you also return to promptly available at that time.

Fangs is correct.
