Why does my phone keep notifying me that I have Wifi calling switched on?

(Only started after latest Samsung system update and much Googling and faffing still doesn't stop the little bugger from appearing.)

Why, at quiet times when there's no-one around, do you still have to walk through a maze of tensabarriers at the airport?

Air miles start from when you enter security barrier so they get to use up as many of your Air Miles vouchers before you fly.

Why do people from Devon speak funny? They should be made to speak King’s English.

Why does my doctor/dentist insist on me completing a massive medical history form before an appointment when they have the information multiple times already, and could simply confirm for updates?

During a recent visit to the dentist I was asked about my alcohol consumption. So I asked "whats that got to do with my teeth"?
She said "well nothing really".....so I said "in that case I decline to answer".

On that subject... Why don't Giffgaff get with the times and support WiFi Calling? Parent network O2 do. I don't get a phone signal at my sister's place in Devon and can't use WiFi Calling either.

I asked mine the same question. He told me alcohol intake can be linked to oral cancer. I still declined to answer 😉

It does seem to affect either teeth or gums as a dentist once told me fairly accurately how much alcohol I drank based on observation of my teeth or gums.

Why do some people answer questions with a question? 🤔

Perhaps (s)he could smell it on your breath!

Amazing sense of smell to be able to calibrate the amount after at least 24hrs.
