Permanent Forward to a number, voicemail to be left on that number?

Hi Everyone,

I have setup a permanent forward from an extension to a cell phone number. The user would like for whoever to call him on his extension to ring on his cell phone (not twinning), forward instead and if they get voicemail, the voicemail of the forwarded number should pick up and the cellphone should display the proper caller id.

Basically, what I would like to accomplish is that whoever calls that extension will be redirected to a cell phone number after 1 ring. If the person on the cell does not answer, the voicemail of the cell phone should pick up.

Also any way to transfer the call display to the cell phone because currently when a call gets forwarded to the cell phone, call display shows our main office line as the phone number.

Turn off voicemail for the extension then.


BAZINGA!

I'm not insane, my mother had me tested!

 
Awesome, once again tlp, you have an answer for everything :)

Any possible answer for the caller id issue or feature?
 
I don't where you are located but over here you cannot send the original caller id.

In the US using PRI you can. The carrier has to allow it though.
 
for the telco's that service the area I'm in (NA), you need to sign a waiver to get call screening removed (and pay a programming charge). They basically make the customer take responsibility for the E911 implications of removing call screening at the central office level.

Im in NA, specifically Montreal, Quebec CANADA.

I would have to double check with our provider then but this seems more of a hassle for 1 user so I think I will leave it be for now.

Thanks everyone
