Do Not Disturb

Description

Allows you to send your calls directly to your voice messaging box without ringing your phone.

In addition, you can make your primary phone emit a short ring burst to inform you when the call is being sent to voice messaging by using the Ring Reminder.

This is important when you have forgotten the service is turned on and you are at your phone waiting to receive calls

Please note, when setting DND on the Business Portal, it becomes system wide DND and affects all your devices once turned on. However if it is evoked on a phone handset, then it will only affect the handset, all other ‘Shared’ devices will be unaffected.

Function

You use this to prevent your phone from ringing. Callers are sent to Voice Messaging or another specified location, such as a number indicated by the Call Forwarding Busy service.
