Callers get a busy signal and my phone doesn't ring. Why?

Hello:

 

I was told by many of my friends that when they call me my phone is always busy and goes to voice mail on the first dial. My phone doesn't ring, it just show missed call. When they call again the second time it rings.

I had this issue when I ported my phone a few months back from Rogers to Fido (I wasn't with Public Mobile yet). All I had to do was a reboot - turn off my phone for at least 2 minutes and then turn it back on again.

99% chance its an iPhone issue. Go to settings->do not disturb, check the "Allow Calls From" setting. It needs to be set to everyone. Its probably set to favourites.

Hey @yzyyz

 

Can you please try your SIM in another unlocked device and compare the behaviour?

 

Don't hesitate to send me your phone number via private message!

 

Thank you,

 

Mary

I noticed it since the first week of October. I have rebooted my phone and took my SIM card and put it back in. It happen in many places.

@yzyyz how long has this been going on?  Have you rebooted your phone recently?  Does it only happen when you are in certain physical locations, or does it happen in many places?

Sounds like a possible porting issue.

 

Have you recently signed up with PM and how recently?

 

Was your previous account in good order i.e. balance paid in full etc?

 

Sorry for the grammar, currently switching between windows from the office.
