Foreign voices on the phone - what to do?
If you hear strange voices while talking on the phone, it is very strange at first. We explain what you can do in this practical tip.
Foreign voices on the phone - that's why
If you hear an unknown voice while talking on the phone, a foreign call has been activated. Links are used in the telephone network and in such a case, an error simply happened. It doesn't happen that often. However, if you experience such disorders more often, you should take some precautions:
- In this case, switch off the phone or remove the device from the mains. If you are using a cordless phone, also remove the battery and then put it back in the device.
- If the problem persists, you can also reset your telephone system to the factory settings.
- If all of this does not help and you continue to hear foreign voices on the phone, then contact your telephone provider.
- If your device is a cell phone, you will probably have to send it in so that hardware and software can be checked. If you have a landline connection, your provider will send you a technician who will check the lines and possibly repair them.
