Recall is a service which allows subscribers to be notified by means of an SMS of people who tried to call them while they were either busy, had their phone off or where out of coverage.
ReCall works in the same way as voicemail. The only difference between them is that Voicemail requires a subscriber to dial 111 to retrieve missed calls and messages left whereas ReCall delivers the messages via SMS and does not allow any further messages to be deposited by the calling party.
Subscribers receive notification about their missed calls by SMS
The SMS contains:
- The caller ID (phone number)
- The number of times calls were attempted
- The date and time of the last call attempt
- A call back request
The exact ReCall message one gets informing them of a missed call will be:
“Called and missed you x times. Last Call was on dd/mm/yy at hr:mm.
Please call me back. Thank you.”
“Called and missed you x times. Last Call was on dd/mm/yy at hr:mm.
Please call me back. Thank you.”
- A maximum of 3 notifications
- Date and time of last call attempt from each caller
