Hello sagnik192,


Thanks for reaching out through the Apple Support Communities about the message you see when calling that particular contact.


When you check the entry for that contact in the Contacts app, does their phone number have a custom X-Phone label, or one of the default labels such as home?


Let us know what you find. Also, make sure not to share the contact’s phone number, or any screenshots of their personal details.


Take care.
