Just going to ask to obvious questions:
A) Have you activated it? via: 1-866-207-3663
If so, I imagine you have..
B) Do you have over 12 numbers forwarded already?
I doubt it,.. so..
C) Did you press *63 and add the number(s) that you wished to be forwarded to?
D) If you've done all the above,.. perhaps deactivating and reactivating might help.
Have you tried pressing *83 to Deactivate,.. Then hanging up, and reactivating?
Another option you could try is the "Call Forward Variable" as its called.
Where it works similar to the regular Call Forwarding, but is activated a bit different.
(Have someone ready to pick up the phone at the location you want the calls to be forwarded to) IE: Have your cell phone in hand.
Pick up your phone,.. and press *72 -- and wait for the dial tone to come back.
Now Dial the number you want your calls to be forwarded to . This service will activate when you or someone else picks up the phone at the number you dialed.
If you listen, a tone will confirm the activation.
To turn it off -- Simply press *73 and you will hear a tone.
Hope some of this helps.
Straight off the Comm site -- But I've used it before and it seems to work just fine. |

Charter's call forwarding feature does not require anyone to answer the phone to be answered. When you forward calls using *72 you will hear dial tone then dial the number you want calls forwarded to, then you will hear a fast busy signal and thats it. The calls will be forwarded. |

Good to know -- Was just keeping with the Charter "Instruction" sheet. We all know how accurate that can be. |
