Anybody else getting Private Number calls on Alltel recently. Started happening to me and my better half on New Year's Eve. Had one on her phone after 3am tonight. Most times it just rings 1 - 2 times. I'm trying to figure out if it's a network issue or somebody playing on the phone. It's getting very annoying.
Someone playing on the phone, usually a drunk trying to find his girlfriend/wife/mistress, etc. I got one this weekend and the dude actually accused me of being with his wife. I laughed and told him I was and she wasn't nearly as good as his mom. He wanted to fight so I game him my address. Haven't seen "hyde nor hair" of him yet.
I've gotten those from time to time. No messages ever left. Just rings 2-3 times and that's it. I've managed to answer it once while ringing but it was instantly disconnected.
I got one like after Christmas. Wasn't anything weird. Just a wrong number.
I got one a few night ago
I have had several in the last couple of days i cannot figure it out
same here
talk like a terrorist, people hang up real fast
Thanks all. I'm hoping it's some kind of Alltel issue. Because if it's somebody playing we might know who it is and I don't want to have to deal with those wh?res.
BTW, of those having a similar issue and not able to figure out who it is are any of you on a Blackberry?
Usually, when "Private Number" shows up on your caller ID, the person calling has their name and number blocked through the cell phone company. It's hard to trace it. Sometimes, even if you have call-by-call listings on your bill, it will show up as you receiving a phone call from your number. The computer has to have something to put there.
I'm not sure the BlackBerry will help matters if it is just somebody calling with their name and number blocked. I've got a BlackBerry and have not had any problems with this type of situation. But then again, I had full service in Norton when almost everybody else was having just 1X service.
On my phone the listing in question comes up as "restricted"
I only have one cousin that I'm aware of that has her number blocked, and she at least leaves a message when she calls.
Which phone service do you have?
Mine is Alltel.
I have Allhell.
Alltel is starting to **** me off. My Blackberry is also having some issues recently so hopefully those get worked out. I don't know if it has anything to do with the switch or if there is even gonna be a switch. Alltel has been bought out here what 10 times and nothing has ever happened.
