Purple Cow Home Phone includes standard calling features like voicemail, caller ID, call waiting, and call forwarding for everyday use.
Before You Start
- Make sure your Home Phone line is active and working before testing feature codes.
- Know which feature you want to use first so you can test one change at a time.
Steps
- Decide which feature you want to use, such as caller ID, call forwarding, call waiting, or don't disturb.
- Use the correct star code or feature flow from the Home Phone reference article to turn the feature on or off.
- Place a quick test call after making the change so you can confirm the feature is working the way you expect.
- If a feature still behaves strangely after you use the right code, reach out instead of repeating the same change over and over.
