Forward Verizon calls to your AI agent
Dial the Verizon code to forward missed or all calls to your Zinng AI phone agent, and the code to turn call forwarding off again.
Use these steps to send calls from your Verizon line to your AI agent. Your number stays with Verizon.
Before you start
Section titled “Before you start”- Your agent’s Zinng number. Find it on the Connect Number page. Use the 10 digits only, without +1.
- The Verizon phone you want to forward from.
- A Zinng number in the same country as your Verizon line. Carriers usually do not forward to another country.
Turn forwarding on
Section titled “Turn forwarding on”- Open the keypad on the Verizon phone.
- Dial the code for what you want, using your agent’s number.
- Press the green call button and wait for a short message or beep.
- Call your business number from another phone to test.
| What you want | Dial |
|---|---|
| Forward only missed calls | *71 + number |
| Forward all calls | *72 + number |
| Turn forwarding off | *73 |
On Verizon, the number of rings before forwarding is set by the carrier and cannot be changed with a dial code. Call Verizon support and ask them to change your “no-answer ring timer”, for example to 4 or 5 rings.
The Connect Number page builds the exact code for you. Pick Cell phone, then Verizon, and it shows the code with your number filled in. See forward your calls to your agent for the full steps.
Why doesn’t the code connect?
Section titled “Why doesn’t the code connect?”Add a 1 in front of the number, or remove it if it is already there. Or set forwarding in your phone’s Call Forwarding settings. On iPhone, type the code in the Phone app keypad.
