To think they’re charged their number?

I haven’t spoken to my sister for 5 months. I tried to call today and it went straight to voicemail “welcome to the O2 messaging service, the person you’ve called is unavailable, leave a message”

I have a new number (my phone was stolen a few weeks back) so I’m not blocked. She’s also not someone who ever has her phone off.

I’ve tried yesterday and today with the same result.

More likely she’s changed provider and not personalised her greeting as pp mentioned.

That's a good point about her not recognising your number.

Have you sent her a text to let her know it's you?

Is she not ignoring it because its an unknown number? Id do that and I wouldnt listen to my voice mail either. Id assume it was a scam

Do you have any other family members who could contact her for you?

I never answer the phone to unknown callers. I figure if it's someone who really needs to speak to me then they'll leave a message

Edited as re-read and saw it goes straight to VM.

Why haven't you spoken in a while, is that typical?

ScurryfungeSpuddle · 24/08/2025 22:28

Probably.

Or maybe she's lost it.

Sounds like it.

Do you have her on social media and could contact her that way?

Unfortunately not, she’s never had any form of social media. Not even Facebook back in the day.
