How do I call forward my call to a cell phone? The instructions are not in the manuel I received when I purchased the phone. I will just take them back and get my money returned, as I am not going to pay for something that I did not get when I purchased the phones.
Seeing the date on your post leads me to believe you won't see this response, but: When I do this, I choose to put my phone on speaker so I can hear the beeps, but ear piece is fine. Open your line. Listen for dial tone. Key in *72. Listen for the dial tone to return. You may also hear two quick beeps and then dial tone. key in the area code and phone number where you want the calls fwded to. then hang up. To check if it worked, have someone call your house phone or you call from your cell phone. If you've fwded to your cell: If calling home phone from your cell, and if the fwding is successful, you SHOULD get your cell phone voice mail. To undo call fwding, get dial tone again and key in *73. You'll either hear a quick double beep then a dial tone, or it will just go back to dial tone. Not sure but I think almost all phone carriers offer this free of charge. Also, you can probably find these same instructions in the front of your phone book.
If you fwd to your cell, keep in mind that any call you receive will use your minutes on your plan. Also, the only charges incurred by a caller to your fwded number will be if the call to your home was a toll call to begin with.
Call forwarding is not a function provided by single line telephones. You will need to contact your telephone service provider to have them provide the service for you as well as instructions for how to turn the service on and off.
Good Luck

Create
a new account with a third-party text message management client
such as Google Voice, which is free
to
use. There is a link in the Resources section.
2
Set
up your cell phone to synchronize with the online client. Create a
new online number that you may use through your cell phone if
necessary.
3
Add
the numbers to additional phones. These numbers will automatically
receive forwarded text messages when you receive them on your cell
phone.
4
Add
additional accounts if you prefer. Google Voice, for example,
allows you to forward text messages to your email inbox.
God bless you

Figure out if your particular cell phone model has the option to forward incoming calls. You can do this by visiting your cell phone manufacturer's website or reading the manufacturer's manual that came along with the purchase.
Access the "Settings" menu on your cell phone and select "Phone Settings" menu.
Select the "Call Forwarding" option in the "Phone Settings menu. This option is usually found at the bottom of the "Phone Settings" menu. Selecting the "Call Forwarding" option gives you access to call-forwarding controls.
Switch on the "Call Forwarding" slider. The default position is off.
Insert the phone number you wish to forward your calls to in the "Forward To" field. This field most commonly lies below the "Call Forwarding" slider.
Exit the setup menu by pressing the home button. You may be asked to confirm/save the changed settings depending on your cell phone model.
Make a test phone call to the cell phone number on which you just enabled the call rerouting option. If the call is forwarded and received on the number you entered, it means that the "Call Forwarding" option has been activated.
