Knocking sound on iPhone calls

Why do you I hear a knocking on wood type of sound when I am on the phone with other iPhone users? Does anyone else have this problem? It is very annoying I tried iPhone reset and carrier and hardware and no luck

So I’ve been having the same issue, I thought my friend I talk to all the time was doing major remodeling. Anyway, I also have Mint, so today I tried turning WiFi calling off and that seems to work, I’ve been on the phone for a few hours and the hammering is gone. Give it a try!

I've been with Tmobile since 2011...live the service but this knocking is ridiculous. I'm not interested in switching carriers...my dghtrs both have iphones with AT&T. My husband and I are on my Tmobile plan and it seems to only happen to me. Doesn't matter who I'm talking to, the phone they have, or the carrier. Quite annoying and Tmobile need to address it. I say let's tak2 it to social media then maybe they'll address it

This is a carrier issue. Not a phone issue. I have a Google pixel 7 pro and use Google Fi . Which piggybacks multiple carriers. I hear it only sometimes which means it's a carrier issue. I used to work for a cellular construction company and t-mobile was one carrier that used a ton of sub contractors. Sometimes we'd have to go through 2 to 3 contractors to get paid but we were doing the work. So you get what you pay for. Don't put other contractors in line to pay other contractors it's a stupid practice and it only leads to shoddy work when a sub isn't paid on time or isn't given what they are owed. Which happens more than it should. Metro PCS was bad with this too. We did some AT&T work, cricket, clear channel, some microwave internet.. Verizon may also charge way too much, but they do all their work in house, so it's done well and correctly. At least it was 14 years ago when I was doing cellular construction, It changes so fast now it's hard to know and I haven't kept up. But I doubt t mobile has changed how they do their construction management.
