Sms for missing call

radina_trifonova — Fri, 04 Jun 2021 14:31:09 GMT

Hello. I want to ask if there is a way to receive a sms when I have a missing call when my phone is off. And if I can how can I activate it?

I'm not sure that 48 provide for that but maybe it's part of the voicemail feature or voicemail would be a suitable alternative?

Hope this helps.

I just tried it there and if the phone is switched off and somebody leaves a voicemail then when you switch on again you get a text message notification of the voicemail.
However I don't think that you'll get a text for a missed call where no voicemail is left.

Ok I did another test... Called the phone while it was switched off but didn't leave a voicemail. When I switched it back on I got a missed call text. I presume that this has nothing to do with voicemail (since voicemail wasn't used here) and happens automatically. Is this not happening by default for you?

Thank you for you fast answer. No I tried call myself too but I didn't reseive a missed call text. Maybe I have to switch on the voicemail to reseive a text.

Unfortunately I don't know and I can't test because the instructions for switching voicemail off in the link that I posted above don't work for me.

As far as I can see some of those instructions are wrong/out of date.

All I can suggest is that you try to enable voicemail for your own account and see if you then get text notification of calls missed when the phone is switched off.

Hope this helps.
