Hi there
There is nothing in the current settings that allow to change that. I'm sorry.
You can let them know.

You can try calling your operator, they might be able to help, as in network operator.

You might try this. I've never done it. So...

1. Open the phone app and dial *#61# on the Keypad. Press the Call button.

2. Locate this text on the screen: "Setting Interrogation Succeeded, Voice Call Forwarding, When Unanswered, Forwards to +" and record the 11-digit number after the + symbol.

3. Touch the Dismiss button. Now enter this code on the Keypad: *61*+ followed by the 11-digit Forwards to number recorded in step 2, followed by *11 and *ringtime#. Ringtime is the number of seconds you want your iPhone to ring before voicemail picks up. Your finished code should look something like this:

*61*+18555513466*11*30#

In the example above the ring time is set to 30 seconds. Press the Call button.

4. You should receive the message: Setting Activation Succeeded. Press Dismiss and next time you receive a call it will ring for the new amount of time before going to voicemail.

Hmm, didn't work for me on Verizon, all I get is Big Red telling me the call cannot be completed. Thx for posting this though.

Call Verizon and ask them to extend the ring time to 40 sec (20 is normal) and walla your good to go until you call them back and request a change

I know with AT&T, the GSM code mentioned above would work but with Verizon not being a GSM carrier, that code would not work.
