SMS Divert


You can divert your incoming SMS to any local Dialog number and IDD number. This can be a lifesaver if your phone is dying or you’re running out of credit. To use this service simply send DIV [mobile number to divert] and send it to 9010.

Activation

You can activate this service via SMS. Simply type DIV [number to divert] and send to 9010. For example, let's say that you want to divert to 0777654321. This is the command:
DIV 0777654321
Send that in a SMS to 9010.

To deactivate the divert (when you want to start receiving SMS again) just send DIV DEL to 9010. For example:
DIV DEL
and send to 9010.

How to use SMS Divert?

Once you activate the divert, any SMS sent to your number will be diverted to the number you request. For example, say that your phone is about to die. You quickly activate the SMS divert to our friend's phone number. Then whenever someone sends a message to you, it will be diverted to your friend.

There are some other commands you can us to control and monitor the SMS Divert service.
