Call failed

[Darciolopes]

I am having problems with my iphone14 - same problem with my last iphone12 - where every time I call someone I have Call Failed. Only way I can perform the call isntyping *#31# to disable hidden caller id. Usually I have to perform this task several times in a single day. Anyone that had same issue?

Guess: the caller receiver blocking hidden/unknown numbers.

I know I do that: my cellco's call blocker app has that option.

The issue here is I am not able to call anyone. After I type the *# thing then I am able to call the same number I tried or anybody else

Sounds like a carrier issue and not specific to your phone. Have you reached out to them?

Doh! Typed in the wrong thing in my reply! Meant to say receiver is blocking private callers (corrected).

So, yeah, that or above. Not phone/os issue.

It might be although I have two lines and both fail.

Exactly. Same carrier? Reach out to your carrier. There might be a setting in their end.

Many years ago, my carrier had only a setting on my account such that when abroad I could not make phone calls. It has nothing to do with my phone. It turns out it was a setting they had mistakenly applied to my account.
