Transferring Extension to External Number
- Richard M Hare
It is possible to setup automatic forwarding of your campus extension to an external number (such as a cell phone). To do so, you will need to have your unit head request this on your behalf. They will need to email either megas@uga.edu or dnjordan@uga.edu and provide the extension(s) they want to have forwarding enabled upon. Once Telephone Services replies with a confirmation that forwarding has been granted, the phone will need to be manipulated manually and in person.
- Go to the phone that has the extension you want to forward.
2a. If forwarding to a 706 Number, Dial *2-9-706-External Phone Number to which you want to forward (no hyphen is needed between the exchange and line number).
2b. If not forwarding to a 706 Number, Dial *2-9-1-Areacode-External Phone Number to which you want to forward (no hyphen is needed between the exchange and line number).
