Simultaneous ringing

Do you want your mobile to ring at the same time as fixed network calls? That’s exactly what the “simultaneous ringing” function is for.

Set up simultaneous ringing(opens in new tab)

Only with inOne SME Office can you enter another fixed network number in addition to a mobile number and have it ring at the same time.

Simultaneous ringing cannot be combined with immediate call forwarding.

For call forwarding after 25 seconds or when line is busy, you need to key in different numbers for call forwarding and for simultaneous ringing.

Parallel calling

You can use this function to make or answer another call if you are already on a call.

Activate the “Call Waiting” function in My Swisscom and switch from “engaged tone” to “dialling tone”. When you are on a call you will then hear a blip (tapping) when you receive a second call. The caller hears the dialling tone.

Set up In My Swisscom(opens in new tab)

Activate the “Call Waiting” function in the device settings. See your device’s instructions for more details:

Costs

The call forwarding, simultaneous ringing and parallel calling functions are free of charge.

Please note, however, that you pay any costs for the connection to the forwarded number if calling is not included in your subscription.

If you are abroad, you will also be charged the roaming tariff for call forwarding. We therefore recommend that you switch off call forwarding when travelling abroad or purchase a data package in advance.
