View originalWhy do my calls cut off at a 2 hour limit?
Why do my calls only last 2 hours 1 minute before cutting out every single time. This happens every time with incoming and outgoing calls.
Hi @Sophie11855 ,
With outgoing calls on our network, this time limit is a feature implemented to prevent any calls lasting too long, say, if it was an accidental call or pocket dial for example. This is simply to prevent you being overcharged.
The incoming calls will be cut off because the network used by the person who is calling you will also have the same safety feature enabled.
I hope this helps.

How do I turn this off please? I need to make outgoing calls over 2 hours regularly
Hi Lucie,
Just to clarify the issue you're having, is it where the calls that you're making are being cut off when you're on a particularly long call?

HI Ryan, yes it's when I dial into long meetings for work that my call disconnects after 2 hours. I appreciate the feature is there for a reason but I find it is not practical. Am I able to over ride this?
Hello @Lucie cocks ,
It wouldn't be something we could override unfortunately. As we use Three UK's network infrastructure for our coverage, the change would be something that would need to be implemented by Three UK. This would affect all users so it's not as simple as turning off the feature for a specific number. Sorry about that!

On my case all the calls cut off after 20 seconds. Why this is happening?

Hi, i would like to know why my phone calls limit to 2 hours, but before it was 3 hours. I'm in Philippines. Do telcos limit their call duration time? If not, maybe may partner intentionally do that on his phone? Do you think?Â
