Apparently there are a number of explanations for this happening, and the most common has something to do with voice mail.

 

It can sometimes be cause when your voice mail is hacked.

 

There is also an app that can be purchased for Android mobiles that allows you to type in what ever you like and it will appear on the caller ID. It is a common prank to input the number that is being called. It must take a mind the size of the universe to be amused by that!

 

By the way, I don't have an android phone, so it wasn't me :-)

Android is an operating system. It's a bit of a pretender after iPhones crown.

 

I'll probably get told off for that, but I really don't believe it's as good.

 

Android is used by the likes of Samsung, and Motorola among others. It's a system that was developed and marketed by google where you can by and install third party applications in a similar manner to iPhone.

I've had my mobile phone (Motorola Razer thingy)for 3 years and my sons think it's hilarious that I won't get an iPhone - I just don't have the time to play around with one - not to mention the cost of them !

We all have our crosses to bear Shadow ;-) I was merely explaining what Android was, and the iPhone is the most iconic phone of the century so far so I thought it would be clearer that way. One must never forget that Apple values it's competitors very highly, that's what made it the world's biggest technology company.

 

None the less, this app is only available on Android at the moment, but if it's an old style copper wire line, there are some faults that can replicate this type of thing, or so I'm told.

Think I've got to the bottom of this - there was a voicetext message on the phone - so the missed calls from my own number were most likely from my call minder service telling me :)
