This article is about whoCalled, a free service already active on your mobile. If you miss a call while your mobile is turned off or outside our coverage area, you'll receive a free whoCalled TXT with the caller's number as soon as your phone is back in range.
Your whoCalled TXT will display the following:
"Hi. This text is just letting you know that you have missed a call from +64xxxxxxxxx, at xx:xx on [date]."
A separate whoCalled TXT is sent for each different caller. Each TXT will detail the number of times a caller attempted to call.
Steps to switch whoCalled on or off
- Freecall 707
- Select 3
- Select 4. Follow the prompts
