When you are calling someone and you get a pre-recorded voice that says “ the subscriber you have dialed is not in service”, it kind of gets awkward because the first thing you think is ‘am I blocked?’. But there are many other reasons that can lead to this awkward feeling. And it can be fixed.
In this article, we will talk about the issue and ways of fixing it. We will also suggest some tricks that you can use on others to avoid calls. They will too hear ‘the number you dialed is not a working number’ while trying to blow up your phone.
Let’s dive in and see what is the solution for the number you have dialed is unallocated. But before that let’s read the cause.
What Causes ‘The Number You Are Trying To Reach Is Out Of Service’?
There are many reasons why you have to listen to this.
- The woman on the other side of the call can start saying ‘the number you have dialed is not in service’ because the call got disconnected from the service provider. Or maybe the number you dialed has missed a digit.
- This call intercept message can be played over the phone even if you haven’t misdialed anyone, then why? Maybe the system has misdialed you. Yeah, it can happen. Systems are AI, so depending on it with eyes closed is foolish. It happens because the pressure on phone lines gets heavier under an area code. Even repeatedly calling on the same number can also say the number you have dialed is unallocated. Therefore, take a break and then call again. Make sure the number is correct.
- The next reason is very simple, you have been given the wrong number. Maybe the girl didn’t like you, or the guy didn’t consider you to be eligible enough for the job, but out of politeness, they had to give a number. Always call on the number on the spot in front of the person who has given it to you.
- The call intercept message ‘the number you have dialed is unallocated’ also has another side, maybe the owner of the number hasn’t recharged his phone, or might have missed the date.
- A fake number can also lead you to this call intercept message. Certain business companies and hospitals do this so that you cannot reach them.
- Doesn’t matter how many times you get to listen to the same call intercept message, remember it is just a system fault and the person you are calling might not be doing this intentionally. So as long as you have the right number you can reach him or her.
To Fix The Number You Have Dialed Is Unallocated:
Every problem must have a solution, so does this one. Here are 4 ways to fix this.

Fix 2: Call Forwarding Can Lead You To The Call Intercept Message
Take a look at the screen while calling someone, if it says ‘call forwarding’, before getting the call intercept message ‘the number you have dialed is unallocated, then it’s sure that the person has forwarded your call to an invalid one.
To fix it you can text them. This might help him know that by mistake your number has been forwarded or maybe not. Either way sending a message helps.
Fix 3: Try Sometime Later
Sometimes the call intercept messages reach you because of the heavy pressure the phone lines are carrying at the moment. So it is better if you wait for a while like minutes to hours.
Sometimes giving a gap can fix the broken network all by itself. This can also happen to a number if it is getting ported from one carrier to another.
