Longer ring?

Hi ppl

What do i need to do to get my 7610 to ring for longer say 30 secs-1 min before going to answer machine,at the mo it goes after about 10 secs and i keep missing calls.

Thanks in advance

the amount of time it rings is dependant on the network

there are codes you can send to give it a determined number of seconds

Eg. I had codes a few years ago (when O2 was still BTCellNet, so I'm not sure if this still applies😊

**61*+447775040355*10*[nn]#

where the phone number is the network's answer phone number, and nn is the length of ring before the answer phone kicks in between 5 and 30 seconds

other networks will probably have different key sequences, i'm not sure, but definately of course will have a different answer phone number.

Alternatively switch off your answer phone, so it will ring for as long as the person on the other end is prepared to wait.
