Minute use is calculated for the entire duration of your call, including the time it forwards to the outside number until the time you hang up that call. Minutes are also used while your account Voicemail Greeting plays for callers, and the length of any voicemails your callers leave.
With call forwarding, there is no handoff of the call once we connect it to your forwarding number. We maintain control of the call for its duration so any minutes used are subtracted from your plan's minutes. Minutes are also used for outgoing calls using our dialer feature, and for calls that end up at your account Voicemail.
That said, if you have the Unlimited Plan, there are no additional charges for call forwarding provided that your usage remains within our terms of service.
Voicemail messages left by callers also count as minutes used and are capped at 5 minutes in length.
