More information about call forwarding

It differs from the other call hand-offs in that forwarding is initiated on a case by case basis (for each extra call) and not configured to a fixed destination, as is possible only with the so-called call forwarding services. This should be the case on your Alcatel One Touch Pop C5. Call diversion and call forwarding service features are summarized under the generic term call diversion.

This type of call forwarding is used, for example, in an office: the mass of calls is actively diverted to the secretariat for each call, while others are accepted. Having such a tool on your Alcatel One Touch Pop C5 could be powerful in this kind of situation.

In the fixed network, but also in the mobile networks, call diversions for the call diverting are usually liable to pay (depending on the network operator and forwarding destination). That could be the case with your Alcatel One Touch Pop C5. We mention it in our conclusion below.
