Calling a private number back

RP1206 · ‎11-07-2022

Hi there

I got a missed call from a private number and wonder if it's important/would like to know what it was but the line is busy when I use #69. Anyone got an idea how to get the number so I can call it another time? Thanks for ideas...

@RP1206 : If the caller has withheld his no. then you cannot find out who it is or call it back. That's whole point of withholding nos.

#69? You're not in US! The UK equivalent is 1571 but that won't get you a withheld no.

Hi there @RP1206

Thanks for coming to the community.

Sorry, if the caller has withheld the number from showing you would not be able to retrieve the number and call them back.

Thanks.

Leanne.
