Diverting Private Numbers / Blocked calls to Voice Mail

The number diverted to must be a valid number and must include the area code. In addition, to divert a call when the phone is locked, simply select the lower volume button prior to selecting the lock button on the top of the phone. Don't press them together, one after the other. The lower volume first, then the lock button. That's the call divert option for the iPhone. Let me know if it worked?

Yes there is. I've been frustrated with Telemarkers always calling with their robocall systems. You can't request to be taken off the list because it's a robocall number. Well, here are a couple of steps I took.

1. Find a disconnect number you can use or some other "interesting" number you can forward them to.

2. I enabled the "foward when busy" option on my iPhone by doing the following:
Select the calling option on your iphone, the green icon with the phone on it. Dial the following, *67phonenumber# then press call. The phone number is the "interesting" number you chose to use.

3. When a call comes in you want to "divert" over to the "intersting" number you selected, simply press the lock button or decline option on your phone if it's unlocked at the time of the call.


I set mine to a disconnected number. So when I receive calls from "unknown" numbers, I simply divert them.

When a number is displayed and turns out to be a telemarketer, I add the number to my telemarketer contact. That contact's ringer is set to silent so, I don't have to hear the phone ring. All this is free.
