Number of seconds before forwarding to voicemail followup
The current default number of seconds before forwarding to voice mail is 30 seconds. I managed to change this to 20 seconds with **61*+447782333123**20# and confirmed that it had (eventually) changed with *#61#. The problem is that it gets reset to 30 seconds every so often.
Is there a way of making the change permanent - 30 seconds is too long!

This is a follow-up to my post in Off-topic (see above). It seems that I can set it to 20 seconds and confirm that it's been set with *#61# (status) which reports it's been changed but sets it back to 30 seconds when I do another status check?
Could someone please explain this behaviour?

Here are all of the codes we would advise regarding call forwarding https://help.smarty.co.uk/en/articles/1463317-setting-up-call-forwarding
Thanks for the link. I tried: -
*61*+447782333123*20#
as per the link you sent me but this gives me "Invalid MMI code". I think there is an asterisk missing. The correct string is: -
*61*+447782333123**20#
which gives me "Registration was successful".
However, as per my previous post, this gets set back to 30 seconds by Smarty/Vodafone.
Sorry - should read Smarty/Three.
