Advanced call forwarding not available

What needs to be done to activate “Advanced Call Forwarding?” Are there more fees involved? To utilize call filtering via Nomorobo, your reps have routinely referred me to this option, which they fail to realize isn’t available on my account.

In the Xfinity voice menu, ‘Advanced Call Forwarding, the page indicates: This telephone number does not have access to Advanced Call Forwarding. This is the message I’ve had since first trying to set it up.  Thank-you.

@XfinityLysa​ I have the same issue.  Can the fix be described here so I can utilize it?  Thank you.

@user_0b68c6​ @XfinityLysa I've had the same problem since I activated my account.  The reps have wasted hours of my time (not sure why I have to be on phone or chat with them while they try to fix the problem) and no resolution.  I'm close to just giving up on ever having that feature or being able to enable NoMoRobo.

If anyone learns of a solution, it would be great if you could post here!

Trying and trying to get Advanced Call Forwarding enabled. Chat lasted 2 hours (80 screenshots of the conversations) and I was passed off to 4 agents in total. The last one said the problem would be resolved in 2 hrs and I’d receive a text validating that. Havent heard another word from xfinity since. Beyond frustrating.

@user_f97138 I've been down the same path with unfortunately no resolution.  Spent literally hours on the phone and on chat with different agents.  Often had to start back at the beginning, even though I documented the problem with screenshots a number of times.  I finally gave up; I just could not spend any more time.  I hope you either get it worked out or figure out an alternative solution (we can't use NoMoRobo without this feature).  If you do, please come back and post!
