I had the day from hell. Had migraine and really busy day. I was in a meeting at 2 and was called out as dd was ill at school so I had to pick her up firstly stopping to get the baby so by the time I got home it was gone 3.30.
Dh was at work SO WHY DID I HAVE A PHONE CALL TO MY MOBILE FROM MY HOUSE PHONE?
Nobody else has a key to my house so wtf?
Looks around nervously

Are you sure you didn't ring your house phone from your mobile ?

BreeVanDerTramp · 31/10/2012 21:03

I've had a few strange things with my phone recently - so have DM and DF. I'm totally freaked about it after watching Derren Brown on Friday Hmm

Is it an iPhone?
Mine keeps doing weird things.

Said I had a missed call from fil so I rang him back. Nope he hadn't rung me and he checked he hadn't even done it by accident

Can you checked the numbers dialled from your home phone? Our phone lets you scroll through the last 3 numbers called and what time the call was made.

I'd check all your wardrobes and under all the beds. Check the attic too.

ShutTheFrontDoor · 31/10/2012 21:11

If your home phone is not showing a call made to your mobile at the right time then it could have been a fault at the exchange. Much more likely than anything spooky...

TessCowDirect · 31/10/2012 21:15

Is there any kind of divert service from your landline?

Loobylou222 · 31/10/2012 21:18

ould it have been a withheld number and just looks like its your home phone because thats the last known number?

GoOooooooooonatic · 31/10/2012 21:24

Ooh that is spooky.....

ThreeWheelsGood · 31/10/2012 21:24

My phone has been glitchy like this before - saw a friend calling but didn't answer in time, but the phone log said it was my home phone number! Would've freaked me out too if I hadn't seen it while ringing and knew it was a glitch.

Actuallylookingok · 31/10/2012 21:28

It was obviously the zombies. Have you checked to see if they left a message? (Cos if there is a slowed down version of ghostly child voices singing nursery rhymes in that spooky horror film way, i'd move.. arghhh scared myself now)

Ilovemydogandmydoglovesme · 31/10/2012 21:30

My iPhone has been arsey all day. Going silent when I'm trying to ring people, signal coming and going when I'm standing still and cutting me off as signal gets lost.

Probably just an iPhone thing.

IamtheZombie · 31/10/2012 21:32

Zombie is here, ledkr. How may she help? [hgrin]

SnapesOnAPlane · 31/10/2012 21:33

Ooh this happened to me once - at the time there was some work being done on the phone mast thing.
The same day a colleague insisted I had phoned him, but I hadn't. I also have an iPhone, if that helps...

BreeVanDerTramp · 31/10/2012 21:49

I think it's the apple noggins trying to get us to upgrade to iphone5! Angry

BreeVanDerTramp · 31/10/2012 21:50

Argh! Boffins not noggins!
