Important information about Call Forwarding

Find essential details about the Call Forwarding feature, including limitations on forwarding text and multimedia messages, billing information, how to check and manage your rate plan features with My TELUS, and potential long distance charges.

  • Text and multimedia messages cannot be forwarded and will continue to be delivered to your device.

  • If the feature to forward calls is not added to your rate plan, Call Forwarding minutes are billed at a pay-per use rate. You can
    check your rate plan features and add-ons
     with My TELUS.

    • From the
      My TELUS Plans & Devices
       page, select the
      Plan
      tab.

    • Scroll down and select
      Plan details
      or
      Add-ons
      to view more details.

  • Long distance charges apply when Call Forwarding to a number outside your Service Area. Charges will apply even if your current plan and/or features include long distance.

  • Forwarding another number to your business mobile device, such as a landline number, will continue to use the minutes included in your rate plan.

  • The Call Forwarding option selected determines when a call is forwarded (e.g. immediately, after 3 rings or only if the line is busy).

  • The original calling number will be the displayed number when a call is forwarded.
