How to Use Connect2Home Calling
Connect2Home
SM
calling is a feature included with USA Nation bundled wireless rate
plans which allows you to make free voice calls from your GSM wireless phone to your
home phone number. If you've selected a rate plan which includes Connect2Home
calling, this service should be available for use the next business day after ordering.
Once the service is active on your account, you will receive a text message to your
wireless phone to confirm.
How to place a call using Connect2Home service:
•
To place a Connect2Home call, dial "22" then press the "Send" or "Enter" key to
place a call to your designated home number. Calls you make by dialing "22" will
automatically be sent to your home number (your home number is the local,
residential Cincinnati Bell Telephone phone number that you provided to
Cincinnati Bell for billing purposes when you activated your wireless phone.)
•
If you move, you can change the telephone number that you designated to be
your home phone number twice per calendar year by calling CBW Care at
(888) 391-3925.
•
IMPORTANT! Calls to "22" will always be free calls, and the minutes used will not
subtract from the minutes you have available in your wireless rate plan. If you dial
directly to your 7- or 10-digit home phone number, these minutes will not be free
and will count against your plan's available minutes. Likewise, minutes used
when dialing from your home to your wireless will subtract from your plan's
available minutes.
•
Cincinnati Bell reserves the right to disconnect the Connect2Home feature at its
discretion.
