It’s easier to disable all the garbage than remove the garbage?

    So here’s the thing.
    In my phone, when I type a phone number, it is a number and does not contain alphabetic characters.
    So that thing that it is asking you to call, isn’t callable. Even if you have a fancy physical keypad that has both letters and numbers on the same keys, they still enter numbers when you try to type letters in the number field.

            Wait, I just realised you are the same person that gave the original reply to my comment.
            I thought you were playing bokeh in which you ignore the main point of the comment and instead make fun out of another aspect of it and act like you are saying that seriously.
            So I replied in kind and dubbed the normal physical keypads of the older dumb and then feature-phones as “fancy” and then acted as if the number actually had to be shown in alphanumeric to match what was written.

            Don’t tell me you were being serious when you said that the ny free security suite was going to send you to someone that would fix your problems (unless your problem was having too much of money).

      Because its a phone number substitution set. You type by the letters on the dial pad but if fills in numbers for the phone number.
