hi @Voice99 

as said, it has something to do with Conditional forwarding.  Seems like PM breaks it again.  Maybe submit a ticket and hope they can fix it again

 submit a ticket with CS Agent using Chatbot here:

This sequence doesn't seem to work anymore.

It still answer after 7 rings🤔

[slusagm]

Dial this sequence: *61 *61475804001*11 *[then enter number of seconds to wait] # [SEND or CALL].

For the number of seconds to wait - choose from the following options:

For one ring, enter 5
For two rings, enter 10
For three rings enter 15
For four rings, enter 20
For five rings, enter 25
For six rings, enter 30 (this is the maximum number of rings/seconds).

Example: *61*16475804001*11*20#[SEND or CALL] - sets your phone to ring four times (20 seconds) before going to your voicemail.

hi @Voice99 

this is an way we have been passing around, but this might not work anymore as lately someone said the conditional forwarding is no longer working

try this on the dialpad
*61*16475804001*11*20#, then click send

this will let it ring 20 seconds before going to voicemail

(you can change that *20# to *5# for 5 seconds, or change to *10# for 10 sec)
