    Hello Shawn Highfield!

    If someone leaves me a message it won't be heard. I just

    time I don't even set voicemail up.

    That's pretty drastic. What if that message was "Hey Shawn..
    my new phone number is <nnn-nnn-nnnn>. Give me a call!"


    I'll answer unknown numbers if I'm waiting for the doctor
    or something else to call, otherwise with the help of hiya
    on my iPhone it doesn't ring much anymore.

    Hiya sounds interesting. Probably wouldn't be a version that
    my BlackBerry Q10 could support. :( My Q10 is my principal
    phone for business, so I *have* to answer most "Unknown caller"
    calls. The only time I see the "ID/name" of a caller is when I
    have added that number to my Contacts list with a Name.

    Why didn't they text it to me? ;) Even my mother texts.
    Even my work phone; I disabled voicemail on it. They can email
    or send me a teams chat message.

    I installed it on my iPhone and the crank phone calls went from a
    dozen a day (sometimes MORE) to none.

    Different thing for sure, when I had a cell phone from work I would
    asnwer it when I was on the clock. Once I packed up my laptop I
    shut down the cellphone and left it in my desk.

    Probably why the boss just re-assigned that phone and told me to
    give myself a "dialpad" number, so I did. ;)

    Dialpad is some overly buggy poorly designed voip software.
