On your phone, what does * 73 mean?
Call forwarding, also known as call diversion, is a telephony feature of all telephone switching systems that routes a phone call to a different destination, such as a mobile phone or another phone number where the intended called person is available. Ernest J. Bonanno is the inventor of call forwarding. The forwarded line in North America normally rings once to remind the call forwarding customer that the call is being rerouted. The forwarded line’s condition is more reliably indicated by a stutter dial tone. In most cases, call forwarding can redirect incoming calls to any other domestic phone number, but the owner of the forwarded line is responsible for any toll payments. Dialing *72 followed by the phone number to which calls should be sent is a common way to enable call forwarding. Call forwarding is activated whenever someone answers the phone. If no one answers or the line is busy, you’ll have to repeat the dialing procedure to for call forwarding to work. By dialing *73, call forwarding is turned off. This feature requires a telephone provider subscription. Remote Access to call forwarding is also provided in some places, allowing subscribers to operate call forwarding from phones other than their own. Call forwarding can also be set up and directed using online portals for VOIP and cable telephone networks.
In Europe, most networks use a distinctive phone tone to signal that unconditional call forwarding is activated. When the phone is picked up, it is clearly obvious that calls are being forwarded, but the same mechanism is used in other nations.
