How to use Selective Call Forwarding:
Selective Call Forwarding enables you to have your most important calls follow you. You select and program the calling phone numbers you want forwarded and the destination number to which they are to be forwarded.* When this feature is turned "on", calls from numbers in your forward list will be routed to your "forward-to" number. All others will ring at your phone as usual.
How to use Selective Call Forwarding:
- Press *63. Listen for an announcement telling you whether the feature is currently on or off. If the feature is off and you want to turn it on, press 3. (If the feature is on and you want to turn it off, press 3.)
- After you turn the feature on, a prerecorded voice will tell you how many (if any) numbers are currently stored in your forward list.
*Toll charges apply if you forward calls to a long distance number unless you have unlimited calling with one of our NO LIMITS package.
To add the last caller to your forward list:
Press #01#.
To enter your "forward-to" number:
The first time you turn on the service, you'll be asked to enter the number you'd like your special calls forwarded to. From then on, the system will simply remind you of the current "forward-to" number.
- If the current number is correct, press 1.
- If you wish to change the current "forward-to" number, press 0 and then follow the voice instructions.
To add a number to your list:
Press #. Follow the voice instructions. You can store up to 12 numbers in your Selective Call Forwarding list.
To remove a number to your list:
Press *. Follow the voice instructions to remove any or all of the numbers from your list.
To hear the phone numbers on your list:
Press 1. After the list is read, voice instructions will follow.
To hear instructions again:
Press 0.
Notes:
You may press 1, 0, #, or * at any time rather than waiting for the voice instructions.
The list you create here is separate from any other lists you may be using for Selective Call Acceptance, Selective Call Rejection and similar features.
This service can work with Call Forwarding (all calls). Numbers on your selective list will follow you to your Selective Call Forwarding number.* All other calls will be routed to your regular Call Forward number.
