Simple Call Forwarding
Forward Your Business Number To An Existing Phone Line
What is simple call forwarding?
Simple call forwarding allows you to forward your Unitel number to any existing phone number or device (cell phone, landline, office phone, home phone, VoIP phone, etc.). No auto attendant, no main greeting, you’re simply forwarding your calls directly to another number.
FAQs
1. Is simple call forwarding right for me?
It depends. If you already have a phone system in place with an auto attendant or you have a live receptionist who answers your calls for you, using simple call forwarding makes sense. If you don’t have an auto attendant in place or a live receptionist to answer calls, we recommend you set up a main greeting to provide your callers with a more professional customer experience.

Yes, you can simple call forward directly to your device’s existing voicemail (e.g., your personal cell phone’s voicemail or even an old-school answering machine) by setting Department Ext. 0’s voicemail OFF and setting it to ring your phone number for 60 seconds.
