title:Check & Disable Call Forwarding on Any Phone (All Providers)

content:Fix Unintended Call Forwarding in 2 Simple Steps

Ever picked up your phone to find no missed calls, but friends say they tried calling? Chances are call forwarding is enabled accidentally (or as a prank). The good news: You can fix this quickly using universal codes that work for any phone brand and telecom provider in India. Based on a practical video demo, these steps are tested across Jio, Airtel, Vi, BSNL, and phones like Vivo, Oppo, and Samsung.

Step 1: Check Where Your Calls Are Forwarded

Before disabling, confirm if call forwarding is active and which number your calls are going to. Use this USSD code: #21#
Open your phone dialer, type *#21#, and press call. A pop-up will show if forwarding is active and the target number. This works for all voice calls (as the video demoed).

Step 2: Disable Call Forwarding

Once you’ve confirmed, disable it with this code: ##21#
Type ##21# in the dialer and press call. You’ll get a confirmation message like “Call Forwarding Unconditional Service Has Been Disabled.” This stops all calls from being forwarded to another number.

These codes are network-based, so they work regardless of your phone brand (Vivo, Oppo, Samsung, etc.) or telecom provider (Jio, Airtel, Vi, BSNL). If you still face issues after using the code, contact your provider’s customer care—they can resolve any network-side problems.
