Introduction Forward all incoming calls to another phone number with Call Forwarding, or designate certain incoming phone numbers to be forwarded with Selective Forwarding.
How you forward calls depends on your Comcast® subscription, but in general you can use your home phone or go online.
Note: For Call Forwarding and Selective Forwarding, enter 1 plus the area code if it is necessary to call the "forward to" number. When you create a Selective Forwarding list, enter the area code plus the 7-digit number for all numbers (both local and long-distance).
