■There is a distinctive dial tone to let you know when Call Diversion is set
on your telephone. Outgoing calls can still be made in the normal way.
■Within each Call Diversion service, whenever you want to change the
number to which calls are diverted, just set the service up with a new
number. You don’t need to cancel the old number first.
■The diverted part of the call eg from your Featureline to the telephone
number you have diverted towill be billed toyour Featureline as if it
were a normal call at the appropriate rate.
■Diversion On No Reply operates after approximately 15 seconds or 6
rings, if the destination phone is free.
■WhereCall Minder has been provided the intermittent dial tone will
indicate that there is a new message waiting and does not indicate that
