Wow most!of that has never happened to me. I do have trouble with text messages. My husband has texted me at 6:30 @ night and text comes through @ 1:30 PM the next day??? We know if we don't get a response from a text within min, to call. I have never not had a call I made on a bill. Could that be from the other persons phone being encrypted?
eta: encryption: I wouldn't think so since the tie my Dr. died that call was from his partner, other missed calls either from me or to me involved DH, my sister, my FIL, my Mom (sitting right next to me in the car for a test, lol), my Dad, a friend... not all of these calls were cell to cell, either. :/ Like you and your husband, we have implemented the same thing: if you don't hear from me (or I, you) within a certain time frame CALL AGAIN. I have found that if we hit # after leaving a msg, we can OPT 2 to mark it 'urgent' and those seem to go through immediately. It's a PITA.
It's really frustrating. This happens to me, my DH, my Mom in another state... Verizon has never had an answer for me, I check forums, other peeps have the same issues, but it doesn't appear to be widespread. It's awkward when you tell someone why the train is late (my Dad picking me up at station) that I DID call him and left a message, but when I go to show him on my phone, the calls aren't there. Luckily, in one instance I had called his landline so my message was there.
Argh. I just wondered what happens in those cases when there's no record or message showing up for two weeks (sometimes just a few days), 22 days is the record so far. Is the call logged in at Verizon HQ (lol, whatever it's called) or out in the crab nebula shooting around? What if it was needed for legal purposes and I couldn't produce a record?
What if something like this was happening with Jessica's phone.
Not to mention how lame it sounds when you tell someone 1) I never got your message, or 2) I swear I called and left you a message!
Grrr.
