Just wondering if it's possible to redirect all calls to a Vodafone mobile to a landline during set hours. For example, 9am-4pm all calls made to the mobile are routed to a landline instead.


Cheers

Anything is possible, but there i would say currently it would be a fairly manual process and it would probably incur an extra cost per call.

my first guess at how you would do it would be just to set unconditional call forwarding on your account for this time period. As far as i know you would need to do this yourself and then remove it at the end of the day.

yeah, it would be possible - but are you expecting the calls to be cheaper because of this?

if you are running 0800 numbers you can certainly set up this sort of routing. you can even configure it differently depending on the origin of the call (e.g. regional routing). Of course, with 0800, you pay all the charges...

That would depend if you are prepay or On account

Prepay no

On account it is a manual change at the required times done under call diverts on the handset

Ok so standard air time rates apply for the divert

It will use included minutes
