For people who love to have uninterrupted times, they tend to use the do not disturb feature. CenturyLink has also designed this feature with which the calls and text messages can be restricted at your desired time. On the contrary, when CenturyLink Do Not Disturb doesn’t work, it can be hard. For this reason, we are sharing the troubleshooting methods!
How To Fix CenturyLink Do Not Disturb Not Working?
1. Schedule
When you first subscribe to the do not disturb feature, it is usually automatically activated for the timeline ranging from 10 PM to 6 AM. However, if your do not disturb is not working at your desired time, it must not be the right time schedule. So, you can try to change the schedule by calling 1888-area code-8052. However, you can also dial *78 from the phone number and get the schedule changed. When you call CenturyLink with this number, they will ask for the security code (you can say 1234) for the first-timers. Once you share the security code, they will help change the schedule.
2. Reboot
If changing the schedule didn’t work or you already have the desired schedule but do not disturb doesn’t work, you could try rebooting the device.
