Initiate forwarding on your iPhone isn't blocking it from working.
I'm sorry you're having trouble with this. It sounds like you've already checked some settings and still face the same issue. You mentioned seeing confirmation messages after using certain dial codes, but they keep showing that the forwarding is active. Have you tried resetting your phone completely or checking if other devices can receive calls? Also, double-check if the forwarding is set on any other apps or services you might be using. Let me know what you find!
It seems unusual. Are you certain these codes are correct? I’ve always used *72xxx-xxx-xxxx and *73 to forward and cancel. Of course, I’m in the US, maybe you’re in another country with different codes? If you still have the old device, see if you can enter it via Wi-Fi to disable it. Otherwise, you might need to reach out to your carrier. Do you have any Wi-Fi numbers? I use a few extra ones to block telemarketers and unwanted calls, and I’ve faced similar problems with Google Voice. It’s convenient for home lines with strong internet, but I don’t think it’s ideal for daily driving.
