Call Forwarding must be possible to all numbers you can actually call

[johncross]

Right now it's only limited to numbers in Canada. Why not enabling call forwarding to the US, provided the long distance ad-on still has unused minutes. If we can call there, why aren't we able to forward there? Call forwarding may than automatically stop as soon as all add-on minutes are used up.

Yeah. Check out my other posts on Others, Such as Roaming, Data Plans variety, Add-On variety, this is Possibly how PM can get better

@johncross Depending how important this is to you now I think there is a somewhat convoluted way to accomplish this:

- get a Canadian VOIP phone number (some are free)

- forward PM to your VOIP number (free if within your plan area)

- forward your VOIP number to the US number (around 2 cents/min)

Have fun.

@Luddite, Pennies went out the way of the Dinosaur. Besides, What does a Penny buy these days? Not sure if they still sell a Bottle of Coke for a Nickel, lol

 @Luddite That's what I am doing right now with my home vBuzzer number. But thanks for breaking it down for the Community 🙂

However, the less convoluted way is simply allowing direct call forwarding. If you can call you should be able to forward.

My personal favourite, right now anyway, is fongo.com.

Thanks for the update. Enjoy your travels.
