To deactivate call forwarding, the method depends on the device you are using:
For iPhone
- Open the Settings app.
- Scroll down and tap Phone.
- Tap Call Forwarding.
- Toggle the switch to Off to disable call forwarding
For Android
- Open the Phone app.
- Tap the three-dot menu or settings icon.
- Select Settings or Call settings.
- Tap Call forwarding.
- Choose the forwarding type (e.g., Always forward, When busy).
- Tap Turn off or Disable for each active forwarding option
For Landline Phones
- Pick up the receiver and listen for a dial tone.
- Dial the deactivation code, commonly *73 for most providers.
- Wait for a confirmation tone or message.
- Hang up the phone
Additional Tips
- To disable all conditional forwarding on mobile phones, you can dial ##004# and press call; this resets forwarding settings to default
- If the standard codes or settings do not work, contact your service provider for the correct deactivation code or assistance
- Restarting your device after changing settings can help apply changes properly
These steps will stop your calls from being forwarded and ensure calls come directly to your device.
