Question

If a phone rings and no one is there to answer it, is it really a phone call?

Answer 1

No the call timing ( in India at least ) is measured from the moment the receiver picks it up. But in some places it may be considered. Contact your telecom service provider.

Answer 2

Why not?  The phone is still being called.

Answer 3

if your @$$hole is too big but no one's there to stick a pine cone in it, is it still an @$$hole??

Answer 4

No, it would just be a missed call.

Answer 5

geezzzzzz! I hope not, because I don't want to pay for it!!

Answer 6

i guess so...isnt the phone being called...even if theres no one to answer it?

Answer 7

The call was missed, therefore there was no call.

Answer 8

It could a computer or other device programmed/used in order to make and/or receive calls.

Answer 9

If no one is there to answer it, an answer machine might get it, then it is a phone call.

Answer 10

I dont think that it costs money for your cell phone if it hasnt been picked up.
