How do I forward my existing number to MyOperator?
To receive calls from your current number on your MyOperator setup, you’ll need to enable call forwarding. Here's how to do it:
📞 Step-by-step guide to forward your number
- Contact your mobile operator
Call your mobile service provider’s customer support from the number you want to forward. Ask them to enable call forwarding to your MyOperator business number. - Provide the destination number
Share your MyOperator number (e.g., +91 80XXXXXXX) when prompted. This is the number where calls will be redirected. - Confirm that call forwarding is enabled on your plan
Some operators require activation of this feature separately. Make sure it’s turned on for your line. - (Optional) Set up forwarding manually on your phone
If your operator allows self-setup, you can enable it in your phone's call settings: - Android: Phone app → Settings → Call settings → Call forwarding
- iPhone: Settings → Phone → Call Forwarding
- Alternatively, dial a forwarding code:
**21*<MyOperatorNumber># and press Call
(Replace <MyOperatorNumber> with your actual business number.)Example: **21*918012345678# - Test your setup
Call your original number from another phone. If setup correctly, the call should ring on your MyOperator-connected line.
🚨 Common scenarios for number forwarding
- You want to keep using your existing number on MyOperator without porting it.
- You're migrating to MyOperator but still receiving calls on your old SIM.
- You want to centralize team calls via MyOperator’s dashboard.
🛠 Troubleshooting
- Call not forwarding? Ensure there’s no “Do Not Disturb” or “Airplane Mode” enabled.
- Still not working? Your mobile plan may block call forwarding by default. Contact your operator to confirm.
