Never miss a call
Call forwarding lets you redirect calls from your mobile phone to another U.S. number based on your preferred conditions. Best of all? There’s no extra charge for using call forwarding on Ting!
Call forwarding options
When setting up call forwarding, you can choose from these options:
- Unconditional call forwarding: All calls are forwarded immediately to the specified number, skipping your phone entirely. Missed calls won’t go to voicemail.
- Forward busy calls: Calls are forwarded only if you’re already on two calls at once. If ignored, a second call goes to voicemail as usual. Missed calls in this mode won’t reach voicemail.
- Forward unanswered calls: Calls ring your phone a few times before being forwarded. Missed calls won’t go to voicemail.
