What to know about call forwarding on chatr

Whose codes are these?

The setup and cancellation codes come from Rogers's support page. chatr controls availability and billing on your own plan, so host-network prices are not a price quote for your service.

Long-distance charges follow your number

chatr bases forwarding long-distance charges on the area associated with your mobile number, regardless of your physical location. Check the destination before forwarding while travelling.

Forward calls from your phone's settings

Your phone may also offer call forwarding in its settings, depending on your device and plan. The iPhone Call Forwarding switch sends every call on. Use a supported no-answer option if you want your phone to ring first.

iPhone

  1. Open Settings, then Apps, then Phone (on older iOS, Settings then Phone).
  2. Tap Call Forwarding and switch it on. If you use two SIMs, choose your business line first.
  3. Tap Forward To and enter the number calls should go to.
  4. Go back. A forwarding icon shows in the status bar while it is on.

Android

  1. Open the Phone app, tap the three-dot menu, then Settings.
  2. Tap Calls (or Supplementary services, depending on the phone), then Call forwarding.
  3. Choose When unanswered so your phone rings first and only missed calls move on.
  4. Enter the number, tap Turn on, and pick the right SIM if asked.

If the code doesn't work

"Connection problem or invalid MMI code"

The network did not accept the request. Check you have signal, turn off Wi-Fi calling and airplane mode, then dial the code again exactly as shown.

"Setting activation failed" or "unsuccessful"

The network refused the divert. Some plans block diverts to other numbers, and some networks want the number in international form. Check the notes on this page, or set it up in your phone settings instead.

Calls still go to voicemail

Voicemail is itself a divert, and only one can be active for each condition. Setting a new divert replaces the voicemail one. If calls still reach voicemail, cancel all diverts and set yours again.
