Help Not recieving calls

jdavis001

Lurker
My daughter has a iPhone 5 and calls from it to me are not recieved - they go straight to messages "missed calls". I have not checked "blocking".
The missed call only displays a number, and when I miss other calls, the user photo and ID are displayed.
Any ideas - I am running 4.1.2

Hello and welcome, jdavis.

Knowing if you're on different carriers could help. But I have to say we see this reported across all carriers and all devices from time to time. It often just goes away after a while, which points to causes out of the user's control.

There are several possibilities, including your kid's or your proximity to local towers or roaming, whether or not you or your kid are with carriers which are renting towers or have their own, the slot cycle index for each device and whether or not it is adjustable on your device or her's, if it happens for every single time with only her phone (as to straight to messages) or if it happens once in a while with other callers.

Once in a while we see a remedy reported: pull the sim card out, with the device off of course. Then just put it back in.
 
Seems that the SIII has blocking on individual lists - I must have blocked her phone from my 'favorites', as she was not blocked from the phone dialer app.
Live and learn I suppose.
