📞 How to Forward MTN Calls When You Don’t Answer (Easy Guide)

Sometimes, your phone rings but you are too busy to answer it. Or maybe you don’t hear it ring. Instead of missing the call, you can forward it to another number. This is called Call Forwarding When Unanswered.

It works for all MTN Nigeria users.

✅ What Is Call Forwarding When Unanswered?

Call forwarding when unanswered means:

If your phone rings and you do not pick it up after some seconds, the call will go to another number you choose.

This helps you not miss important calls even if you can’t answer in time.

Very easy! Just follow these steps:

1. Open your phone dialer (where you make calls).

2. Dial this code:

If you want to forward the call to 08031234567, dial:

**61*08031234567#

3. Press the call button (green button).

Now, if you don’t answer a call, it will go to the number you added.

❌ How to Cancel It (Deactivate)

To stop this forwarding, dial:

##61#

Then press the call button. MTN will remove the call forward when unanswered.
