That's how voicemail still works on many DECT landline phones
- Nextgrid 7y agoAssuming you use your phone's voicemail system. I've never used anyone do that; everyone I know relied on voicemail provided by the phone company, but this meant that when the call goes to voicemail it appears as a missed call to the phone itself and you can no longer pick up the line and intercept it.
