Telus Support Callback

Any time I use Telus support and request a call back on my cell phone, the support call back never rings on my phone -- I get 3 messages in voicemail and that's it.  I have turned off call control -- makes no difference.  So I am stuck with chat -- ok most of the time but when thugs get complicated chat can be cumbersome.

    On my iPhone I have a setting to block any callers not in my contacts. Possibly you have a similar setting enabled?

      Crikey you were right!  There is a setting to block unidentified numbers in Android land (whatever unidentified means) -- the Telus call back number was indeed blocked when I reviewed Settings/Blocked Numbers.  So I have unblocked Telus -- hopefully they always use the same number!

       

      Thanks for the advice

       

      Who would have thunk it?  Not me I guess!

      Thanks -- I have an Android phone: don't have that setting on, maybe it doesn't exist -- worth a check.  I had call control on but it's off now.

        If you are using the Google phone dialer it will have the block unknown number setting. I don't know about other manufacturer specific dialers like Samsung. The dialer that comes with LineageOS doesn't have the setting which is one of the reasons I installed the Google dialer.

         

        I don't think it's related to Call Control because a caller that doesn't pass call control can't leave a message.
