*Call Catcher is an alternative to Voicemail which gives your callers the option to send their contact number to you via TXT, if you can't answer their call. You can switch it off at any time and switch on Voicemail instead, or remove both services completely. With both Call Catcher and Voicemail off, unanswered calls will simply ring out. Call Catcher is free and there’s no charge to receive the TXT notifications.
