Using Call Forwarding
Last Updated: Thu, 14 Apr 2011 > Related Articles
Summary
Program your calls to ring to another number.
Solution
How it works: You can program your calls to ring at another number (for example, your cellular phone). Each time a call is forwarded, your phone will emit one short ring. It can still be used to make outgoing calls.
To turn on the service:
- Lift the handset.
- Press *72.
- Listen for the dial tone.
- Dial the number where you want your calls forwarded.
- When the phone is answered, your Call Forward is in effect.
- If the line is busy or there's no answer: hang up.
- Within two minutes, repeat steps 1-4 above. You'll hear a confirmation tone to let you know your Call Forward is now working.
To turn off the service:
- Lift the handset.
- Press *73.
- Listen for the confirmation tone, then hang up. Your Call Forward is now OFF, and calls will ring normally on your phone.
To change the "forward to" number:
- Turn off Call Forward.
- Repeat steps 1-5 above to turn on Call Forward, entering the new "forward to" number
