Here are some of the 'manual' commands for setting various things on the PCN & GSM networks. In all cases type in the commands followed by the Send key or green handset key or whatever you have on your particular handset.

In all cases 'number' is the number you wish the call diverted to, 'service' is shown in the table below, 'delay' is from 5 to 30 seconds in 5 second increments. 'barring password' is known as 'network password' on Orange.

Service Codes

Voice Calls (Line 1) 11 Voice Calls (Line 2) 89
Fax Calls 13 Data Calls 25
All Calls 10 All Data Calls 12
SMS 16 All calls except SMS 19

Generally the parameters in [ ] can be omitted, but the default 'service' if you don't specify is for Voice calls and the default 'delay' is 30 seconds.

CLI

On Orange and T-Mobile only the Check Status command is recognised. On both these networks global enabling or disabling of CLI is done by Customer Services on request. On Orange disabling outgoing CLI does not affect incoming CLI. On T-Mobile disabling outgoing CLI also disables incoming CLI. On both networks you can enable or disable CLI on a per call basis by prefixing the number you dial with 1470 or 141 respectively. If this fails, you should be able to prefix the number with *31# or #31# respectively.

Outgoing   Incoming  
Enable *31# Enable *30#
Disable #31# Disable #30#
Check Status *#31# Check Status *#30#
