For the trades
Call forwarding codes
Dial the code on your phone and press call. Replace the example number with your own Guardian Dial number.
How to type your number
Use the full UK format starting with +44, and drop the first 0. Example: if your Guardian Dial number is 07727 611329, you type it as +447727611329.
(On an iPhone, press and hold the 0 key to get the + sign.)
⚠️ The number in the table below (+447727611329) is only an example — swap in your own Guardian Dial number, shown on your dashboard.
| What it does | Turn ON | Turn OFF |
|---|---|---|
| Forward ALL calls (recommended — every call goes to your AI receptionist) | **21*+447727611329# | #21# |
| Forward when no answer | **61*+447727611329# | #61# |
| Forward when busy | **67*+447727611329# | #67# |
| Forward when unreachable (phone off / no signal) | **62*+447727611329# | #62# |
| Turn off ALL forwarding at once | — | ##002# |
Most trades just use "Forward ALL calls" — switch it on when you're working, off when you want to answer yourself.
Before you start — check your network
- • Most networks (EE, Vodafone, Three – Pay Monthly): the codes above work, or use your phone's Settings.
- • O2, giffgaff & some others: you may need to contact your network to switch forwarding on — the codes can show "registration failed" until they do.
- • A few networks don't offer forwarding at all — see the "Will It Work With My Phone?" page to check yours.
Once it's on, ring your number from another phone to test — or use "Check if I'm Live" in your dashboard.
