I used to work customer service and this would sometimes work even when the customer was certain it wouldn't.
Wouldn't this prevent ALL calls from going to voicemail, even those where the phone rings and I'm unavailable to answer?
Logically, yes. It would have been more accurate for me to say that this would sometimes work when the customer and I both thought it wouldn't. It was always one of the first things we were supposed to try and sometimes it worked when it didn't make sense. I am absolutely not a techie. My solution to most tech problems is to power cycle it and remove the battery. :lol::
