Voice Mail Forwarding

I have a BBerry Storm.  Is it possible to have it forward unanswered calls to my office instead of voice mail?  That way, I only have one place to check for messages.

Setting up the phone to forward all calls to your office is apparently not what you want - am I understanding you? Just those calls you choose NOT to answer?

To Activate - No Answer:

1. Press *71.
2. Enter the forwarding phone number where you want calls to be forwarded (e.g. *71-606-123-4567).
3. Press SEND and wait for confirmation. You should hear a confirmation tone.
4. Press END.


To Deactivate - No Answer:

1. Press *73
2. Press SEND and wait for confirmation. You should hear a confirmation tone.
3. Press END.

This will allow you to see who is calling, and answer if you choose, and any that you choose NOT to pick up will be forwarded to your office number after 30 seconds.

 

*72 activates IMMEDIATE call forwarding, and your phone will not ring at all.  *71 will give you time to answer if you choose, and THEN forward.  It will also forward calls if you are on the phone at the time the call comes in.

 

HTH,
