Forwarding Codes
Open your phone's dialer, enter the activation code, and press Call. Replace your SkipCalls number with the number from your SkipCalls app.
| Forward Type | Activate | Deactivate |
|---|---|---|
All Calls Every incoming call goes to SkipCalls | *72 | *73 |
When Busy Forwards when you're on another call | *90 | *91 |
No Answer Forwards if you don't pick up within a few rings | *92 | *93 |
When Unreachable Forwards when your phone is off or has no signal | *59 | *59 |
Replace •••• with your SkipCalls phone number (found in the app under Settings).
Troubleshooting
- •Verify that the Call Forwarding feature is enabled on your specific Comcast Business account tier.
- •Ensure you are entering the full 10-digit SkipCalls destination number without any extra prefixes.
- •Check your Comcast Business VoiceEdge portal if the star codes are not responding on your physical handset.
- •Confirm that your account has no outbound calling restrictions, as this can block the forwarding process.
- •If calls are not connecting, try deactivating and reactivating the service to refresh the network connection.
