How to Set Up Call Forwarding When Busy

for call recording on your mobile

Welcome to your simple guide on setting up call forwarding for those important calls you don’t want to miss. Before we dive into the steps, let’s clarify a few points about call recording, especially for iPhone users.

Firstly, iPhone users might find it puzzling that direct call recording isn't possible on their devices. This is due to the security constraints inherent to the platform.
The alternative? Use an external call recording service. Specifically, the Recostar cloud platform connects via a secondary phone number to help you with this. However, we advise resorting to this method only if leveraging a second number to record incoming calls isn’t feasible for you.

Guide to Set Up Call Forwarding:

Enabling Conditional Call Diversion: This step will ensure that if your line is busy, the incoming call will be forwarded to your Recostar service number.
- The standard method involves dialing a particular sequence from your mobile: *67, followed by your Recostar number, and then the # key.
- For clarity, if your Recostar number is +1 929 555 11 22, you'll dial: *67+19295551122#
Facing an Error? Don’t fret. Sometimes errors might pop up if your mobile carrier employs a distinct command for setting up call diversion.
- We've provided commands for several mobile operators below. If, however, you don’t see your operator listed or still encounter an error, it’s best to get in touch with your mobile carrier's support team. They will guide you on how to redirect calls during busy periods to your Recostar number.
A Crucial Note: Until you have correctly set up call diversion, recording incoming calls on your primary mobile number won’t be possible.
Post Activation Steps: Once you’ve activated call forwarding successfully, make sure you follow our comprehensive guide on how to record calls on your mobile. This will ensure you capture every essential conversation seamlessly.
