A telephone ringing is a request, not an order.

My father gets phone calls from withheld numbers and they leave no messages. These calls are clinics on Hospital grounds usually only ringing about appointments have been changed or checking up. We know they withhold their numbers when he has been able to reach the phone has checked afterwards it was withheld, most cases they ring off far to soon. They then have the cheek to send half a dozens same letters saying we tried to call you but no answer!
