Good Morning Folks

I have a pay as you go sim card in my Samsung Galaxy S4.

Can someone tell me how to send all incoming calls to voice mail?

I have looked at various youtube videos and searched on the internet but still can't seem to do this.

Thanks

    Have you tried ?

    Going to Settings>Phone>Call Forwarding>Forward to> and enter the Voicemail Number .

    Or Dial **61* followed by +447953222222 , followed by # press send

    You should see a message on your screen saying that forwarding has been enabled

    When you wish to stop forwarding your calls, dial ##61# to disable call forwarding

    does call forwarding not cost on PAYG ???

    If so the call will eventually (if not answered after 30 secs) be automatically diverted to voice mail for free

    .
  • To retrieve a voicemail message on EE payg costs 30p. Call Divert proper does not work on EE payg you can only normally divert to Voicemail if not answered or unavailable as far as I am aware.

    Thanks Folks
  • Maybe shorten the ring time to as little as possible and set your ring tone to silent?

    Most PAYG services don't offer call forwarding to anywhere but Voicemail - this doesn't have a charge for the forwarding.
