Siri, "call my wife's cell phone"

Greetings,
When I tell Siri to "call my wife's cell phone", "call my wife at home", it pulls up my named "Anthony Poole". However, if I tell Siri, "Alison is my wife", I get the response of "Ok, I already know that Alison Lastname is your wife".
If I say, "tell my wife I'll be home in 10 minutes", Siri respons with "Which Alison Lastname; Alison S. Lastname or Alison Lastname". However, when I search through Contacts, I only have 1 entry for my wife, which is "Alison S. Lastname".
Help, please.
Jeff

rogerhelmich,
Sorry about that. Did your wife obtain an International SIM card? If she did, then the calling will be a little different. If she did not, you will just call her phone as your normally do. Your phone will recognize that she is outside of the US and you will be billed accordingly. Here is how you would dial out to the Philippines: Dial 011 then 63 then international number.

I call my wife's I phone it goes directly to voicemail. I call right back it goes through

I call my wife's cell phone (verizon - Iphone) from my Iphone 5s (AT&T) it goes directly to voicemail. I literally call right back and it rings through. This does not happen to anyone else I call or to anyone else who calls my wife.

This support document should help explain Do Not Disturb. Depending on her settings, yes, the second call within a specified time period will go through. Use Do Not Disturb on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

I loaded ios7.1 to my Ipad2 and my wife's cell phone came up. I can't change it and now I get her text messages on my iphone4S and she is getting apps I download on her iphone 4S. How do we fix it?

I recently downloaded ios7.1 to my ipad and my wife's cell phone # appeared on my ipad. It would not let us change it. Now I am getting her text messages and she is getting the apps I load on her iphone4S. We both have iphone 4S, but she has version 7.1 and I still have 6.0 because I didn't like the changes in v.7.0. We share an Apple ID and password which was not a problem before. My daughter says this is our problem, as she had her husband had this issue. She doesn't know how he fixed it. Has anyone else had this issue and can you tell us how to separate our Apple ID/passwords if this is, indeed, the problem?

If you share an Apple ID, both of your phone numbers should be linked to that ID. You should be able to use your phone number as well. My wife, my daughter and I all share an Apple ID for purchases, and we each text from our iOS devices using our own iPhone numbers.
When iOS 6 came out, you were able to link the phone number with your Apple ID to use for Messages and FaceTime. You will need to sign out of messages on all devices and then start the process all over again.
Take a look at this.

Can I get a call detail for my cell phone?

I want to get a list of all the calls made from my cell phone. Is this possible?
Thank You for any and all help

Re: how to view call history on line?

Me: Siri, call my wife. Siri: I don't see name of wife in your address book.

I say, Siri, call my wife, my dad, my brother. Siri takes the message, understands what it means, and tells me she doesn't "see" the person, using the proper, full name to do so - so obviously she sees them!
What to do?

Check Settings>General>Siri>My Info to be sure you have selected the right contacts. Then check the contact to see if the relationships are set up correctly. If they aren't you can either have Siri do it "My wife is ___, by dad is ___, etc.), or you can do it manually by opening your contact, tap Edit, scroll to the bottom and tap Add Field, tap Related People, tap the relationship name to the left and select the proper relationship from the list, then tap the blue arrow to the right and choose the contact for this relationship; repeat to add other relationships.

Cannot make calls to landlines and cell phones.

I just bought a subscription for 1 month with skype. I have try to make several calls already and have not been able to connect. Skype starts to call and then it comes up with the message that you have to have skype credit or a subscription. What can I do?

Do you have Skype Credit, or a subscription, to cover calls to landlines or mobiles from your Skype account? If not, then you won't be able to call telephones other than possibly toll-free numbers in a few countries. Remember that a Skype Online Number only covers receiving calls. It does not give you the capability to make calls to telephones.

I don't think your browser would be the problem here. Check the Skype app on your computer, and your account (either through the app, or log into your account on the Skype web site).

Charges for calling Skype number from cell phone

Just purchased a skype phone number. Chose a local area code so family can call me while Iam in Italy. Will there be an additional charge on their cell phone when they call me. They have unlimited calls and text on there monthly cell plan. Will I have to pay skype if I answer call to my skype number on my cell phone? If I purchase a premium subscription will I be able to call home from Italy on my cell phone? And how much will that cost per minute- or will the monthly premium price give me unlimited calling and text from my cell?
thanks for your help! fondi

Same problem here. I just bought the number though so wondering if it is a teething proble;

Does Qik use WiFi and Cell phone service ?

At home we have WiFi in the house connected to our Router, which connects to our ISP.
Using an iPhone in our house, using Qik,...will all the vido data use our WiFi connection ?
...to send a new Qik video ?
...to receive a new Qik video ?
If we are out of the house, with no WiFi available, will Qik use our "cell phone network" ?
(Which will use "data minutes" I assume.)
I guess this is separate from "TXT messaging", and if I have a limit on TXT, that is independent from Qik ?
Sound correct ?
Just want to have a good idea of when Qik uses each network.
Thanks

Hi,
All depends on the connection type that your phone is using. If you are using WiFi connection with your iPhone at home, then Skype Qik usage - as any other internet usage on the device - will go through WiFi.
When you are out and connected through "mobile internet", then Skype Qik will use this connection for sending/receiving videos.
It does not affect your text messaging limits in any way, as it uses internet connection for sending/receiving videos.
PS. On iPhone (iOS 7 and up), you can actually go to Settings > Cellular to tell the app to use WiFi only, if needed.

Phone won't make outbound calls now. In a hotel and unable to call support cause my cell PHONE DOESN'T WORK anymore. this was after 17 minutes on hold and asking for my 4 to 48 hour voicemail notification delay to be fixed. rep said it was and to turn pho

Phone won't make outbound calls. can't call verizon support. this after being on hold for 17 minutes in an attempt to fix voicemail notification. this is a nightmare and Verizon is unreachable. Any way to get Verizon wireless to fix my service when they can't be called (because their phone service doesn't work)?

Well 1, I guess it's not that important to you, 2, customer support generally closes at 11pm in the time zone you are in, 3, toll free and local calls are free in hotels, 4 there is limited support after hours.

TS3376 How do I turn my wife's cell phone on

I'll turn my wife's phone off with the app find my iPhone and trying to turn back the phone on

You can't turn a phone off with Find My iPhone. Do you mean you locked it or erased it?

Why won't my Razr Maxx ring when called from my home phone or the other cell phone (I-phone) on my Verizon account?

Why won't my Razr Maxx ring when called from my home phone or the other cell phone (I-phone) on my Verizon account?

Hi Ruth:
Thanks for reaching out to me about this issue.
This has been happening since I got the phone a couple of years ago.
I did not realize that my home land line and my wife's cell phone
always go straight to voice mail until my wife pointed it out to me
several months ago. Is there a setting I can adjust?
Yes, I can make calls to our home land line and to her cell phone
without being diverted to voice mail.
Any advice you might have would be most welcome.
Thanks.

Can't make calls with cell phone

I tried to make a call today on my cell phone (non-Smart phone) and received a message that I do not have enough money in my account. However I just checked and I am paid in full for this billing cycle and have unlimited minutes. Why am I getting this message and why can I not make a call????

djklaugh we'll get you back in action! We'll need a few pieces of info so we can pinpoint the issue. You can pay monthly with Prepay and Post Pay. So which service do you have? You can also add a text messaging block to prevent all messages by http://vz.to/1gi8nNC

Best rate to call Mexico cell phone?

I wish to call a north Mexico cell phone, how do I enter the number, and what is the best rate?
Post transferred from blog article;
subject/title edited accordingly.

Good morning werl,
The scenario that you have provided is an interesting one and I would love to clarify for the community. May I ask which call forwarding option do you expect to have activated, immediate call forwarding or No answer/busy transfer? If the party activating the Call Forwarding or No Answer/Busy Transfer Feature forwards the calls to another Verizon Wireless number and has a Mobile to Mobile Calling feature, airtime for the Call Forwarding will deduct from the Mobile to Mobile Calling minutes. If you have any additional questions then please respond to this message so can further assist.
Thank you...

3102 question - access from cell phone

Hello,
I am thinking about buying a SPA3102 after seeing the comments that you can access it from a cell phone or other landline.
My wife's family is overseas, and I want to use the free international calling from my Voip provider when she is calling from her cell phone or from her job.
I want to verify it will work with the following scenario.
I do not have any PTSN phone service. I only have voip service.
I do have a voip service with unlimited international calling.
Can I configure one of the ports on the 3102 with my current voip provider, and provision the second port on the 3102 to use another voip service (such as gizmo5 etc..). My wife would call the gizmo number from her cell phone, enter a pin, and be able to dial internationally via the free international voip service?
As an alternative, is there anyway of doing this with just the single voip provider (and not worry about the second number)?
I just switched to my current voip service because ATT canceled CallVantage. I am not very happy with the service, but I selected it because it was the only one with unlimited calling to South America, and had the ability to dial an access number to call free from a cell phone.
I'd rather get a new voip service that has better quality, even if they don't have the cell phone access, if I can get the celll access from the 3102.
Thanks in advance.

The SPA3102 doesn't allow voip-to-voip call bridging. It only allows bridging a voip call with a pstn line (FXO port) call. You possibly could use the SPA3102 to bridge a call to another voip service if you interface the other service's ata to the FXO port of the SPA3102. Even if you do that it is not quite optimal and you may have problems.
Some voip providers do not allow you to configure your own adapter and insist that you use a locked adapter that they provide. Others do not have this restriction.
When calling South America with VoIP you can encounter some severe quality problems depending on the voip provider and the provider they use to route and terminate the call. Day of the week and time of day can also make a significant difference. This probably has something to do with the bandwidth available to the provider on the long haul to South America.
One nice advantage of the SPA3102 is that you can setup up to four additional outgoing only providers on the adapter and this allows you to use additional pay-as-you-go (pay per minute) providers and have a choice in calling.
I would try different providers to sample the voice quality to the destination(s) you are calling to find the right combination of cost vs voice quality.
Four pay-as-you-go (pay per minute) providers to check out are CallCentric, Future-Nine, CallWithUs, and OneSuite. Future-Nine and Callwithus have different quality levels (termination routes) that you can specify when you dial.
The providers also have "access numbers" that you can call without having to use a pin although some have more numbers than others and with Future-Nine you can also access their "calling card" function thru SipBroker's access numbers. Access numbers are nice because you can use them without actually having a physical voip service.
With CallCentric you can also get a CallCentric DID (incoming number) and setup your own private incoming number as an access number. CallCentric also has some South American DID's that you can setup as your own private access number..
