Cellular Phone Forum / Country Specific / UK Group / December 2006Disable Orange Answer Phone
Can you disable the Orange Answerphone? Im a contract user.  SignatureRevenge is a dish best served cold Ancient Klingon Proverb > Can you disable the Orange Answerphone? Im a contract user. Yes, just ring them on your regular contact number for customer services and ask them to turn it off. Job done. I used to be a contract customer and turned it off immediately after signing up with them. Sorry cnt remember the number to call for customer services on contracts. I'm now a PAYG customer. jpd expressed precisely : > Can you disable the Orange Answerphone? Im a contract user. Yes. Don't ask them to turn it off, otherwise you'll get them all confused. As far as their system goes, they have to enable something to achieve what you want! You need to ask them to /enable/ no default divert to voicemail. nothanks@blueyonder.invalid declared for all the world to hear... > > Can you disable the Orange Answerphone?

Not actually correct. > You need to ask them to /enable/ no default divert to voicemail. Not correct also. Enabling "no autodivert" allows the user total control over the diverts. It does not turn the voicemail service off. SignatureRegards Jon Jon explained : > nothanks@blueyonder.invalid declared for all the world to hear... >>> Can you disable the Orange Answerphone?

Why shouldn't the account holder have the ability to make vm turn off & onable? >Why shouldn't the account holder have the ability to make vm turn off & >onable? Because Orange assumes that most of their users are fairly thick. By having the autodivert, you can divert all calls to another number, then turn the divert off again. If there was no autodivert, you'd need to set the divert to answerphone when needed each time. Something like that would tax the sort of user that Orange considers their customer base - or more likely, something that would generate too many support calls.

That will work, but you won't be able to activate it again without calling OCS again. Enabling no-autodivert allows the user control via the handset menus or *# codes. Ivor >> What a lot of bullshit.

Don't know what they have done to mine, they have switched off the diverts OK but when the phone is switched off the caller gets the equipment engaged tone!

Can you manually switch divert off/on..? Ivor Steven was thinking very hard : >> jpd expressed precisely : >>> Can you disable the Orange Answerphone? Im a contract user.
