I'm getting my number ported over this coming week and I've got a SIM only deal from Vodafone. Before signing up though I borrowed a PAYG SIM and tried it in various places to check coverage and overall I'm really impressed. However, on this PAYG No when I activated the Call Waiting, you see the second call coming in on the screen but can't answer it!
I've tried the combinations of '1' + 'send' and '2' + 'send' and also just 'send' itself and an all occasions the phone or network doesn't accept the command and the second call does not get answered. I've tried the SIM in a Nokia N73 (my main phone I'll be using after the port), my old generic unbranded Nokia 6680 and even a Nokia 6310i all with the same effect. I got a message on the 6310i saying something like 'network command not accepted'. Do VF not allow the Call Waiting feature on PAYG SIM's or do you think there's a problem with that particular SIM/PAYG No?
My phone is a lifeline for me and I often get two incoming calls at once so I'm hoping when my SIM arrives, the CW feature is working ok. If when a call comes in, on VF can you simply press 'send' to answer and place the first caller on hold or do I need to press '1' + 'send' every time? Any help appreciated!
