Missed calls!!!

Hello kimutaku!!! Yeah, it can mean thus. I MISS YOU. Every thing without a word and really the money saving on the one hand and on the other hand making our friends happy. I know my friends rarely call me with their cells phones. If I get missed calls from cells phones then I only give back missed calls. There is no chance that someone give me missed call with their landline. So immediately when I get missed calls from landline, I would call back. Most of the time I leave my mobile in the room though I am out of the room, that's why I may miss some calls. Yeah, you can play the missed calls game. There was a time we used to compete giving missed calls to each other. But due to the poor network nowadays, we don't do it too often. Network is very very bad in my country Nepal. I hope it will improve in the future...And enjoy your game. Good luck!! Have a nice time and thanks for responding....

Hello starduskp!!! Hmm that's the thing, the language of missed calls yeah...Like if I give you missed call in the morning then it means I am saying you "Good morning" and if I give missed calls to you in the night then I am saying "Good night". Pretty saving of the money and making friends happy too isn't it. And the consideration of number of beeps for something, that's even nice. I have seen my friend doing that with his girlfriend. Keep mylotting...Have nice time.

Hhehe. It's nice to see that other people than just me does that. :P

Hello cecillecarmela!!! You are lucky to get such a nice service for the cell phones there in Philippines. Well in our country, its not that cheaper, we don't even have free calls in the mobile phones and not even in the landline phones. I hope the Telecom with bring such nice scheme in the future in our country Nepal too... You responded very nicely on this topic. Well I am happy. Here I also found some people who say they hate missed calls, just because missed calls means to them that they have to return back the call, not the thing like I miss you. Personally, I enjoy getting missed calls very much and love to do that too. Its a one way to keep the friends in touch even though we cannot meet them. There are friends to whom I keep giving missed calls, even though we don't meet for months or even a year. This is the best thing of giving missed calls. This doesn't mean that I don't use text message at all and I am so worried about my phone balance hehe... I am happy to know that missed calls is very much popular there in Philippines such that it could obtain a space in the dictionary. Well we don't have such thing in our dictionary hehe... And there is nothing to worry about the battery. It will get recharged soon,if its drained away. But to get the missed calls is the more interesting thing than this. And I say, it's not the defect at all... And also thanks for the tips. I didn't know that the low battery has such bigger radiations. I will keep that in mind. Its the good part of mylot that we keep learning such things from each other in mylot, though minor but very much practical.... Thanks for your wonderful response... Keep mylotting...Good luck...

Hello rymebristol!!! That's what I wanted to say rymebristol. Missed calls are the signs of remembrance. And yes it is also the good idea to missed call before actually sending the message. But most of the times, it happens to me that I send first the message and then give missed call to check is there network or if the mobile is switched off. I didn't realize I have been doing the opposite thing. Now from now on, I will do like you. First the missed call, then the message. Yeah!!!! Are you really sleepy head...Had someone message me like that, i would not have known hehe...Because when I have already slept, its difficult for me to really wake up and message really can't wake up. How can I wake up with missed calls, when I can't wake up with the alarm of cell phone. Most of the time, I don't realize missed calls, because I think that my alarm is ringing and turn it off without opening the eye lol. There was a time when I used to wake up in the very early morning with the alarm and immediately press the recieving button and say hello, hello. That was the time when I started using first time the alarm in the cell phones. Now the process is just opposite..May be you can call me "Sleepy Head" too hehe... Thanks for your response...And happy mylotting...

Hello hxstar!!! Yeah missed calls is sometimes interesting. When I am feeling really bored and get nothing to do, I just go on giving missed calls to many number of friends, and surely I get many missed call responses in return. And I get happy for that. Calling here is not that cheap. Even though the calling had been cheap, I hope we would have the trend of giving missed calls. It's like speaking something without a word. You too have a nice time and i am happy to get your response in this thread. Good luck

Hello xannebull! Its great that you have that you don't have to pay for the local calls. I wish I had the one. Most of my friends are here and I would have done many calls if it was free. But it's not free. Calling without reason can hang me up with the big telephone bills. I have once seen my friend, who called a lot to his girlfriend with is Landline, and got the bill of over 4000 Rs and then his telephone line was cut. He had to pay the sum before he get his line again. You are lucky to get them free... Thanks for your response and happy mylotting....

You summed it up perfectly well. I was also in the same situation as you. But sometimes I do admit that when I wanted to get the attention of say a love one before or what, I would miss call and just kept quiet, ha!! Happy mylotting to you too, friend.

Hello zed_k4!!! This means that the missed calls have the disadvantages there. If someone gives me missed call with that intention, I will start to get irritate with the missed call for sure. If some wants to talk with me, they should call be rather than saying me call them back. It's the selfish thing, its same thing, we too have to charge like them. But fortunately, this is not the case in mine. I just get the missed calls, that means, remember you. Sometimes, it also happens that I get missed calls, with the hope that I call them back and I do call, but it doesn't happen often so I don't really mind. Here too, outgoing calls cost a change and incoming calls are totally free. And also, there is no any charge for missed calls, unless the phone is picked up. And yes, sometimes the friends, get angry for a while, when they give missed call, am I accidentally picked them so fast . It happens due to coincidence that I was just going to press the button and the phone rang at the very moment hehe... Thanks for sharing your missed call story...Keep posting...Good luck

Hello gmkk1986!!! I don't mind missed calls at any time. Yes it can be disturbing sometimes, some friends may have exam and they wouldn't want to diverge their minds. Thanks for your response... Good luck

Hello again! Well we also don't have to pay for the incoming call now. Few years before, the mobile phone users had to pay for the incoming call too. As soon as it happened that we pay only for outgoing calls, and with the introducing of prepaid system, everyone started to have the mobile phones. Within these two years only almost all of my friends got their mobiles. But the most common thing is that their balance is always mostly less that 5 Rs. For making calls, more people prefer to use the landline instead of mobile phones... We don't have that free calls on ours. Using skype cannot connect us to the friends because very few friends have subscribed the internet service at their homes. But I use online sms, whenever I have to send the message which we can send the maximum of 10 per day and it is provided by the very subscriber themselves. I get deliberate missed calls from my friends. i.e my friends rings my phone for few seconds and cut it before I do receive it and I do the same. Just to say, "Remember you." Being unable to receive the phone due to some reason is another kind of missed call, and mostly I call back these numbers. What I do is directly call the number if it is from landline but if it is from a mobile phone, then I would just missed call back and wait for call, and those can be just the deliberate missed calls as I mentioned above. Yeah it also happened to me few times, that when I call back, then they say I haven't call you at all. This is the worst thing.... Thanks for responding...Have a nice time...

You supposedly don't get that one missed call hehe...Ok may you get more and more missed calls from your boyfriends... And yes it is really surprising that you get that many missed calls from the unknown numbers. I think your number is somewhat similar to some popular phone numbers... Thanks for responding back...

Hello ayameyokomi!!! I am surprise to hear that you get 4-5 missed calls a day from the random number dialers. I don't get that much wrong numbers just 1 in few days. The missed calls are from my friends just for fun and I do the same. Thanks for your response..Have nice time

Hehe, I don't know how that happens though. It just happens :D As for the normal missed calls, I get also 4-5 a day from my boyfriend 'cos my phone is always on silent mode, haha! But I love missed calls. I don't know why XD Whenever I see the words "1 missed call" on my phone's screen, i get goosebumps all over my body 'cos it reminds me of the creepy tune in One Missed Call movie XD I'm really scared of that tune! Haha XD

Hello thanusha45!!! I got some of the same response like you already and if you read the above posts you will see them. Not all, but few friends are telling the same thing that the missed calls expect them to call back. Yes I would also have not liked to get the missed calls, if the missed calls meant that for me here... Well I get missed calls, just showing that they remember me. And I don't need to call back, simply I response them giving the missed call back like them. Sometimes, I am the first to do that and sometimes my friends. But if I am really busy, I don't respond in any way at all. But when there is really something important to say, I telephone them or also use text message depending upon which is appropriate. And my friends too don't give missed calls indicating me to call back.... You don't need to hate this kind of missed call, do you? Thanks for your response...Have a nice time...

Hello orang13!!! Well to get more missed calls it is certain that we should also respond them. If someone keeps on miscalling me just to show that he/she remember me and if I don't give missed calls back to them, then they should stop or reduce the frequency of giving missed calls to me. yeah sometimes I also use the text to send short messages of remembrance or different things. But it is good to save money unless we really need it. Happy mylotting

Hello balthier!!! Hehe...We also played that game a lot in the past days. It was some 2 years ago, when most of my friends started using the mobile phones for the first time and even me. Like you said, we used to compete with each other. The one who can receive many number of calls or the one who can give many number of safe missed calls without giving chance to receive the call wins. I used to keep my thumb at the receive button and wait for the call to come in. And sometimes, I even kept the mobile phone near the speaker, such that the speaker used to sound before the signal actually reached the mobile which made me easier to hold the missed calls attempt hehe...But we finally negotiated as our money was going on waste. And now I don't really receive the call in just one or two ring, but instead wait for some more rings to make sure that the caller is not only giving missed call, but really calling... Well, here in Nepal, many of my friends don't have the internet connection in their home. But most of them have mobile phones and that's why missed calls is so popular here. Well we also use facebook. And mostly I use the web sms that allows to send the message to the cell phone totally free of cost. Thanks for your nice response...happy mylotting...Have a nice time...

Hello aayam1!!! First of all, welcome to the mylot forum. I hope you will enjoy a lot here... So you too get a lot of missed calls like me. I want a handshake with you. Yes missed calls really reminds, that someone is missing us, that's why I love to get missed calls. Yes, you are right, missed calls are mostly useful for the students like us. Well, all the missed calls givers here I see are mostly students only. Not only because of the expensiveness, but it is the student age in which we have lots of friends and like to keep in touch with them... Thanks for your response...Keep mylotting...Hope you will earn a lot here...Good luck

Hello kenchiprincess!!! So you don't get many missed call, but you get real missed calls lol...By real missed calls I mean really missed calls due to some reason. Well I get rather than this kind of missed call, I get faked missed calls lol..., the calls that are deliberately cut by the friends after few seconds. I also do like your fiance most of the times when I send the message. Well yes, it is the just the way to check out, if your message is really read or not. And with that I get quick response from my friends.... Thanks for your response.... Happy mylotting....

Hello sanuanu!!! Well you used to missed calls with different meaning and I get missed call with different meaning. In my case, I don't have to call back for the missed calls, neither my friends will be expecting the call back from me. But they will be surely expecting the missed call back from me. This is the just the way to keep in touch, no need to actually call at all. Missed calls speak. But you are talking about the different missed call, the one that is given just in the expect of a call back. Well I don't do that. I make a call if really necessary. Well its just meant to say, " I missed you" or "I remember you." And for this why anyone has to get angry. I don't get angry, instead I get happy to get them. Mostly I get the missed calls from the same persons. Just some ring and then cut off deliberately. And also do back the same. There are about ten friends who do this for me frequently and so do I. And if I want I can increase this kind of relation with many other friends too... So I hope you understood the meaning of missed calls for me. Its just another kind of missed call than you have think and I hope you love this way and don't really hate this.... Thanks for your response....Keep mylotting...Good luck

Hello yonkie!!! I am glad to get your response here. Thankyou!!! I did never know about about the drop calls. In the previous response too I saw the word dropcall but thought that the dropcall and the missed call are same. Yeah I would enjoy a lot with the dropcall if we had them. So you too don't have that facility now. Wouldn't you use it at the present time too a lot like those days, if it was there...If there was such thing like dropcall here in my country, I would stay before a clock and call friends, and cut the call after each 55 seconds and then recall him/her. Hey was there some scheme applied by them that protects from this kind of act. Did you did as I mentioned... And about the missed call, I found that you recieve different kind of missed call and I recieve pretty different kind of missed call. I would like to categorize the missed calls into two parts. One is deliberately given missed calls. i.e just ringing for few second and then cut by himself. Another missed call is the one you mentioned, being unable to recieve the phone due to some reason. Well Mostly I get the deliberate missed calls, just the sign that someone is remembering me and mostly I return such missed calls... Thanks once again...And have a nice time...Enjoy

Hello tchersue, welcome to the mylot community. I hope you will have a lot to enjoy here and I hope you make lot of friends as well. Thanks for your response...Good luck
