Hi, does anyone know how to change the ring tone a caller hears when you are abroad from the long international tone to the standard one you get when in the UK?
Thanks

Dave Is quiet correct.

You are not able to change the ring tone to the uk one as your not in the uk.

When you are abroad you get there ring tone, engade tone and sometimes depending on which network you connect to there warning messages in there language.

You also gain some of there services in addition to your own back in the uk.

I also know that some networks aborad when you roam on them allow you to use there own shortdials when speaking to there own network for customer care problems.

International Ring Tone Simulation

Hi Folks -

I have some good news. . . . After reading some of your requests on this forum I decided to create simulation service which you can easily use that will allow your callers to hear an international ring tone as if you were abroad.

Follow these simple steps:

1. You will need to set-up your call divert
2. Divert your voice calls to the following number '08700 699600' (please note: this number will just constantly ring playing the international ring tone to your callers as if you were abroad)

I hope this solves your problem.

Cheers.

Im confused, If you tell your phone to divert to the following number, you are going to be charged for the divert and to divert to a 0870 number.

Also where does the call go? or do they just here the phone ringing?

The reason why the caller heres a different tone is to let the caller know that you arent in the uk.

I am not sure if you will be charged for the divert because in normally depends on your network provider and the type of package you signed up for. I would recommend you check with you network provider in the first instance.

The call goes to a simple service which plays the international ring tone to your callers. You can dial the number from any phone and see for yourself.

I concur with your statement about why the caller hears a different tone but it seems that some of the people on this forum have a need for it. . . .

You will be charged for the divert and if you divert to a 0870 number, you will be charged the 0870 charge, which is 20p per min
