Hi Is there anyway you can disguise the dial tone when someone calls you from the UK and you are in Spain...

@Jasper89 the only way is to use a paid for call forwarding service. There's nothing you can do from the handset. 

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.

@Jasper89 

Having spent much of the last 30+ years holidaying in Spain, I would say no. People in the UK get the international dial tone when they call you.

Hi @Jasper89 .

 

Do you mean the "dial tone" ie what you hear on your phone before you dial a number, or a "ring tone", what you hear in your handset's earpiece when you've dialled a number and the call has traversed the network to the called party's phone and is ringing at their side but before they actually pick-up, or answer, your call to them?
