On the phone, should I say, "Hello, is this Louise?" or "Hello, is that Louise?"
Thank you.
@paok1970,
Either will do, but only if you believe you might be talking to Louise.
@izzythepush,
Suppose that you are Louise, how do you answer the question(s) above?
Again, many, many thanks for your kind help.

Thank you.
Use "This." "That" implies that Louise is someone other than the person you're talking to.
