IPhone Won't Call One Number

Help - my IPhone won't call my Dad's phone number. It starts to call and then just ends the call. Happens every time and has been like that for two months. His number works fine from any other phone (our house phone, my husbands IPhone). I deleted the contact entirely from my phone and put in the number without any additional information and the same result. Still won't call. He is my emergency contact, so I am concerned that I can't call him from my cell phone at all. How do I fix this?

iPhone 5, iOS 6.1.2

Just noticed that I cannot make any calls or mobile networking with the iphone. I have just not noticed before because I´m on WiFi all the time.


I guess this means that there is a IMEI block on the phone witch has happened before. The police unlocked it for me 4 months ago and it is registered on me with my carrier but someone apparently reported it stolen again.


Never buy a used phone... I got the reciets and everything, but that didnt stop that guy from trying to get insurence money for it too...


Well, again, thanks for the help. My bad in giving out faulty information.



I guess after all the problem was that neither the carrier nor the phones were faulty, iphone was simply blocked by apple.

Yeah im a few years late with the answer i guess but this happened to me for 2 numbers only and i found the solution to be clearing your call log, i k ow you have probably moved on from this but incase anybody else has the same problem, i wasnt able to call these 2 numbers who were my most called. This lasted about a week until i cleared my recent call log. It seems to have worked as im able to call them again, its the exact same as how you described, maybe theres some sort of limit, idk, its probably not relevant to you anymore but for others it might be
