I forwarded all calls from one of my phones to another. I want to be able to tell when a call is coming in from the other phone. How can I make that happen?

One way is to add your old phone to your new phone’s contact list. From there, go into your contacts app and edit contacts. Scroll down to ringtones. Normally, it says “default” but here you can specify the ringtone you want to hear when your old phone calls your new phone. Hope that helps!

maddyurken, we completely understand how important it is to determine who’s contacting you. While call forwarding is activated, the phone number that’s receiving the forwarded calls will still see the original caller’s phone number on their Caller ID. Because of this technology, there’s not a specific way to view if your incoming call was a forwarded call or they’re just dialing your number directly when you’re in that exact moment.
One way to help determine if calls were forwarded is by checking My Verizon for the usage details on the line that has the call forwarding service enabled. In the usage details, you’ll have more information to advise whether the call was an incoming call, outgoing call, or a forwarded call. You can sign into your My Verizon account and check your usage details at https://login.verizonwireless.com/amserver/UI/Login?realm=vzw&goto=https%3A%2F%2Fmyaccount.verizonwi...
