Mobile Phone Help Please

webbyc · 06-Sep-2005, 08:59

I've been given a mobile phone by my new employer so now have two!! Don't intend to get rid of my own one as everyone has that number. I know it's possible to divert calls from one to the other, but who pays for the call diversion?

My own phone was on contract but now cancelled that and they've given me a 12 month deal where I get 25mins a month free!!!

You shouldn't pay for the call diversion - but you might want to phone your provider and check with them, just in case.

I do this a lot with my work and personal mobile. Both are on Vodafone, and I don't get charged for the divert.

Webby I did this a few years ago and I did pay for the diversion, didn't notice that until the bill appeared in the post, I'd suggest leaving a voicemail saying your new number is....

Cheers guys, checked out with O2 and I would have to pay for redirection as if I were calling from one mobile to another which would make it expensive I think.

How about recording a new answer message with your new number and leaving it switched off?
