Can’t call a number

I can’t make calls to one particular android phone number from my iPhone. It doesn’t matter what android phone the number is connected to - it just seems to be that number. I am not blocked by the person and I can call it via WhatsApp. I can received calls from that number. It’s not blocked in any way. The rest of my family can’t call it on their iPhones either but the person is being told it isn’t his phone that’s the problem

Any ideas?

iPhone 13 mini, iOS 15

The problem analysis of swapping of their SIM to other phones and others trying to call it it points to it being their network connection/SIM, they need to contact their network operator.

Whatsapp uses a different protocol using internet data not the line itself.

Thank you. I did t swap my SIM though. I have always had an iPhone. It’s the other person who had the android s d always have. You are right though that they have changed android phones but coda phone keeps saying it’s not them but me. I use BT/EE s d don’t have a problem calling other android phones
