Call Forwarding to Your Open Doors Phone Number

This guide explains how to set up call forwarding from your personal phone, whether it’s a cell phone or landline, to your Open Doors phone number. This allows you to use Open Doors' Voice AI without changing your existing branded phone number on business cards, websites, or online directories. Follow the step-by-step instructions below based on your phone carrier.

Why Forward Calls Into Open Doors?

Call forwarding allows you to seamlessly connect your personal or business phone number with Open Doors' Voice AI system. By forwarding calls to your Open Doors phone number, you can:

• Leverage Voice AI: Enhance customer communication with AI-powered call handling and transcription.
  
  
• Maintain Your Existing Number: Keep your current phone number visible to customers without needing to update it on marketing materials or directories.
  
  
• Streamline Operations: Ensure all incoming calls are managed through your Open Doors account for better tracking and management.

How Call Forwarding Works

When call forwarding is enabled, incoming calls to your personal number (cell or landline) will be automatically redirected to your Open Doors phone number. Open Doors then handles the calls using its advanced Voice AI capabilities.

Need Help?

If call forwarding is not sending calls to the correct destination, first review the forwarding settings with your carrier and confirm the destination number is configured correctly.

Verify that:

• The correct forwarding number was entered.
  
  
• You used the correct carrier-specific forwarding code.
  
  
• You selected the intended forwarding behavior, such as all calls or missed/unanswered calls only.
  
  
• You received a confirmation tone or message after enabling forwarding.
  
  
• The destination number can receive inbound calls.
  
  
• Call forwarding has not been disabled or reset by the carrier.
  
  
• The original phone line is active and in service.
  
  
• International or special forwarding restrictions do not apply to your carrier or plan.
  
  
• You tested forwarding from a different phone after setup.
  
  
• The forwarded call reaches the expected Voice AI or call-routing configuration.
  
  

If forwarding works but calls are not handled as expected after they arrive, review the destination number’s routing, Voice AI, and availability settings.

If the issue continues, collect the original phone number, destination number, carrier name, forwarding method used, and the result of a test call before contacting support.
