FAQs

Why won't my phone let me call some (805) area code numbers? 
Some calls in the (805) area code are not local calls     (ex: Santa Maria, Ventura).  You will need to first enter your long distance access code.  Then, dial "8" followed by the number.  You do not need to enter the area code like you would before a normal long distance call.
 
How do I fast forward or rewind through a long, boring message?
Pressing "9" will jump ahead 10 seconds.  Pressing "7" will jump back 10 seconds.  Pressing "7" more than once will start the message over again. 
 
How would my roommate(s) and I go about making separate voice mailboxes for each of us?  
After entering voice mail by  picking up the phone and dialing "6775" and entering your password, press "8" for feature options.  Then, press "3" to add or delete an individual mailbox.  Next, press "1" to add a new individual mailbox.  You will then be walked through instructions for personalizing your mailbox. 
 
How do I get call waiting?  
Pick up your phone and dial "#" then "6."  WARNING: If you do this, messages cannot be sent to your mailbox while you are on the phone.  If you re-think this idea, and decide you prefer having your voice mailbox pick up when you are already on the phone, you can reset it.  Simply, pick up the phone and dial "*" then "6" followed by "6775" and hang up.  Try it out. 
 
How would I forward my calls directly to voice mail?  
Begin by picking up the phone and dialing "#" then "5."  Hang up.  Pick up the phone again and dial "*" and "5" followed by "6775."  Hang up.  Try it out. 
 
How could I forward my phone calls to another room (ex: if I'm studying in my friend's room)? 
Pick up the phone and dial "#" and "5."  Hang up.  Pick up the phone and dial "*" and "5" followed by the 4 digit extension of the room where you will be.  Hang up.  Try it out.  When you return, pick up the phone and dial "#" and "5" to cancel your previous forward.
