We have seen that the call waiting is paid today if not deactivated with all operators (even Tre has adapted since July 2015). The numbers are not high, it is less than one Euro per month, but it is still something you would not want to pay since it has always been free so far.
Call waiting, on the other hand, is a very useful service, to know who has been looking for us when the phone does not pick up, when it is off or when it is busy .
If, even for a question of principle as well as money, you do not want to pay anything for this service, after deactivating it, you can try an application available for Android phones and for very ingenious iPhones .
The app is PhoneFunky which uses call forwarding so that when someone calls our phone and finds it busy or unreachable, the call is diverted to a special number that records it and then shows us who it is.
Practically, instead of the SMS, you will receive, free of charge and without paying, when the phone is connected to the internet, a message from the application that shows the number of those who sought us .
Call forwarding, being silent, is not charged.
The only thing a little strange and perhaps not too cute is that those who seek us will always find themselves busy, even if the phone is off or if they don't pick up.
PhoneFunky, of which I have already spoken, requires to register an account with email and password.
In the settings screen you can then activate the " Who called me " service, which is the one to find out who looked for us when the phone cannot receive.
You will then have to register our phone number in the application and verify it with a phone call that will not cost anything because it changes.
At the end of the recording it is necessary to configure call forwarding to the PhoneFunky number, that is 0694802015 .
Specifically, the number ** 67 * 0694802015 # must be dialed on the telephone keypad for the diversion if the telephone is busy and then ** 62 * 0694802015 # for the diversion when the mobile phone does not pick up.
The diversion also works with the phone turned off, but the caller will feel like he is busy (probably a technical limit).
Call forwarding requires, in order to function, that there is at least one Euro on the residual credit.
