How do I use my home phone features (call blocking, call waiting, three-way calling)?

Here's how to use the calling features on your Worldline home phone, straight from your keypad.


Block unwanted callers


  • Block specific numbers: dial *60 and follow the voice prompts to add numbers to your block list (typically up to 12 numbers).
  • Reject anonymous calls: dial *77 to block calls from numbers that hide their caller ID. Dial *87 to turn it off.
  • Need more advanced blocking (area codes, international)? Contact support and we'll set it up.


Do Not Disturb


  • *78 — turn on (all calls go straight to voicemail)
  • *79 — turn off


Call waiting


While on a call, press the Flash (or Link) button on your phone to switch between the current call and the incoming one.


Three-way calling


  1. While on a call, press Flash/Link — the first caller is placed on hold.
  2. Dial the third person.
  3. Press Flash/Link again to join all three together.


Call forwarding


Set it up straight from your keypad:


  • *72 — forward all calls: dial *72, then enter the number to forward to
  • *73 — turn off forward-all
  • *92 — forward calls you don't answer: dial *92, then the forward-to number
  • *93 — turn off no-answer forwarding
  • *74 / *75 — send all calls straight to voicemail / turn that off


If a code doesn't take, or you'd rather we set it up for you, contact support.


Caller ID problems?


  • Your name/number shows wrong (or "Unknown") when you call others: this is an account setting — contact support and we'll correct how your caller ID is sent.
  • Incoming call display not working: make sure your handset supports caller ID and its date/time is set; if it still fails, contact support.


Voicemail


See "How do I use my voicemail?" for messages, greetings, and passwords — the short version: dial *98 from your home phone.
