AT&T Call Forwarding

There are a few ways to forward your AT&T calls to a temporary number during onboarding. If an option doesn't work, try another.

Option 1 — Try the normal *72 method

Use the standard *72call forwarding method for your AT&T line.

From every line on an AT&T phone, dial *72 immediately followed by the temporary number plus #.

e.g. *729072682420#

Log into the AT&T business account and enable call forwarding there.
