There's no way an unregistered number can connect to me because my incoming calls was set to privacy, it's filtered. I have certain list of numbers that are allowed to contact me. If they want me to accept their calls they must send me an SMS first and it must be important. I hate phone calls.

hello simonlee :)))
for me i would consider phone calls
why???
first
he/she may be one of my registered contacts that has in any way
have an emergency message to me. take into account of that too :)))
second
after all its not my loss if i entertained such call, he/she
is just wasting his/her time and load to me if i don't know the person
calling to me
if you have to converse a msg to that person, two statements would be
enough to end the talk.

I don't entertain an unregistered call or text. If the caller knows me, then he or she will first identify himself. There are instances however, overseas call don't register a number.

Of course i will. I used to answer phone call with different numbers which came from one caller - my sister. Callers abroad will register different number even though he/she has the similar number. but not in all case.

No. Phone call or even just a text, I don't entertain it. But if the number really is persistent to reach me then I may think that it is an important call. And hey, if I did applied for a job and patiently waiting for their call then of course I would answer it..registered or not :))

Yes because it might be an emergency from one of my registered contacts.
I would entertain the phone call depends upon what he/she says and if I know her
AFTERALL ITS NOT MY LOSS, he/she is wasting her own load, not mine. :))

I will have to entertain, without talking to the person, I cannot just come to know either it is stranger or known to person.

Hi Lienrose
Sometimes unregistered number pops up in your cell because of online marketers. We normally give out information on credit cards and other stuff so they know the number. However when you answer them you can always be cordial and then excuse yourself that something came up that you have to go.

There are pretty much less people who's willing to call so I answer all of that; it must be urgent or important for the other to call.
As for text, I don't entertain numbers I don't know except for those inquiring for my products (I have an online shop). So there. :)
