Call forwarding on a mobile phone
Hi, I was wondering: is there a way to turn on/off call forwarding using the * + number combo ?
Hi McFly,
For an unconditional call forwarding, this is *21# to turn it on and #21# to turn it off. You have to dial **21*(destination number)# to program the number you want your calls forwarded to.
For a conditional call forwarding:
Call forward busy: *67# to turn it on, #67# to turn it off. To program the number, this is **67*(destination number)#
Call forward no reply: *61# to turn it on, #61# to turn it off. To program the number, this is **61*(destination number)#
Call forward not reachable (device turned off): *62# to turn it on, #62# to turn it off. To program the number, this is **62*(destination number)#Thank you!
It is like pulling teeth to get a list of working MII codes out of Videotron. For me the codes mentioned here work as long as VoLTE is turned off on your cellular profile. Turning VoLTE on, which is increasingly needed for reliable cell service, breaks call forwarding for me on multiple unlocked phones.
The current FAQ for mobility around international calls says:
"You may only forward calls to numbers in Canada or the United States.
If you forward calls to a phone number outside your local calling area, you will be billed the usual long-distance charges if calls are taken or forwarded to voice mail."
Basically if you can forward your phone you can try it and it might work with surcharges.
