Every time I place a call it instantly rings busy

Every time I call a number it instantly rings a very fast busy signal. None of the people are on their phones in a call. I can text and email. I think that the recent update happened last night. I can receive calls just fine

iPhone 7, iOS 14

Same model of phone?


If not it could easily be a misconfiguration at the cell tower, and congestion at the tower does not remain constant from second to second.


Contact your cellular provider and inform them of the issue.
