My mobile phone doesn’t ring when I place an outbound call

If you’re experiencing this issue, there are a few things to check.

First, ensure the number you are trying to dial is correct. Next, make sure you are entering your mobile number into the Your Number field. The CallRail tracking number should be entered in the Tracker field.

Spam block features

Do you have any spam block features enabled on your device, such as T-Mobile Scam Block, or the iPhone Silence Unknown Callers feature? If so, you can deactivate them using the instructions below.

Is the caller ID of your tracking number blocked on your device?

Double-check that the tracking number you're using to dial out from isn't blocked on your mobile device. 

Do Not Disturb

Was Do Not Disturb enabled on your device when you tried to place the call? If so, we recommend deactivating this feature. Follow the instructions below to deactivate it on your device.

Please note: You can return a call to someone who previously called your tracking number. 

If you’re still having issues after following these troubleshooting steps, you can contact our Support team with your device type and model.
