Conditional Call Forwarding
From HowardForums Wiki
Conditional Call Forwarding (CCF) works very much like Call Forwarding except that it only works on the condition that the system is unable to complete the call. When this condition is met the system forwards the call to the predetermined number, usually set by the you, the user.
Most, if not all, post-paid lines include 500 CCF minutes to use each billing cycle. With 500 additional minutes each cycle, propertly utilized it could be a very efficent and cost effective method to prevent costly overages by simply conditionally call forwarding your mobile to your home or office. It should be noted that if you simply set call forwarding you will be taking minutes out of your anytime minutes.
Using the following codes is the same as using the Conditional Call Forwarding (CCF) menu available in many phones. However if you create a contact with this info you can set it up easier, especially if you frequently forward to one number, such as your home or office.
Tip: For even quicker setup designate your CCF contact under one of your speed dial numbers.
