Random calls go straight to Voicemail.

iPhone 13 on ios 26.7.1. Many of my contacts' calls go straight to voicemail but not all. They are not blocked. Focus is not on. DND is not on. Silence unknown callers is not on. I have done all of poster Lawrence's steps but still random calls go straight to VM without ringing. I do not have any security software that would be blocking calls. The only thing I have not done is Reset all Settings because I don't want to have to re-enter all my passwords.

Resetting All Settings is unlikely to do anything useful.


Do you have the silent switch enabled at any time? It's the one above the volume buttons. Do you have custom ringtones for any of the people who go right to voicemail? Do you wear an Apple Watch?
