    2. Follow the prompts.
  • To cancel call forward:

Trouble phone forwarding?

Notes for CCI Tech Staff: You may need to email Drexel telephone requests at telephone-request@drexel.edu , and ask them to enable phone forwarding to an external line or external phone forwarding. If so, include the person's name with issue, their office room number, their wall plate number, the port number (usually 1, in the top left) on the wall plate that the phone is plugged into, their full phone number, and the number they wish to forward to.
