To use Call Forwarding
If you know where you are going to be, you can forward your incoming calls to that location. You control the forwarding of your calls to any number* including your cellular phone or pager, anytime you choose.
How to use Call Forwarding:
- Press *72 and listen for a dial tone.
- Enter the number to which your calls are to be forwarded. Call Forwarding works with either local or long distance* calls.
- When someone answers, Call Forwarding is activated. If the number you called is busy, or if there is no answer, repeat the previous steps within two minute and Call Forwarding is activated. From that moment on, all calls will go to that number until you change the number or end Call Forwarding.
How to end Call Forwarding:
Press *73 and you will hear two short beeps. This informs you that Call Forwarding is no longer activated, and calls to you number will ring at your telephone normally.
* Toll charges apply if you forward calls to a long distance number, unless you have unlimited calling included in either a Coastal NO LIMITS Broadband or Coastal NO LIMITS Phone package.
Notes:
- While your calls are being forwarded, your telephone will ring briefly each time your number is dialed. You cannot answer the calls, but the ring is a reminder that Call Forwarding is still in effect.
- If you forward your calls outside of your local calling area, you will be charged for any calls forwarded from your number to the long distance number unless you have unlimited calling included in either a Coastal NO LIMITS Broadband or Coastal NO LIMITS Phone package.
- While calls are being forwarded, you can still make outgoing calls.
