My iPhone Likes to Call People
It's like an episode from Seinfeld. Jerry gets a new phone as a gift and puts a woman on hold when George calls. He talks to George and eventually switches back to the other line, only to find she hung up. Concerned, he switches back to George who informs Jerry that he heard the entire conversation while on the hold line.
Today my iPhone called my girlfriend while I was talking to someone else. She ended up having a 10 minute voicemail of my conversation (which luckily wasn't about her). This rarely seems to happen, but there is a bug somewhere in the phone.
I personally think the bug is somewhere in the call switching. It rarely happens, but didn't end with my girlfriend hearing a random conversation today. Also today, my iPhone called someone else right after I hung it up. I was about to put the phone back into my pocket when I hear, "Hello? Hello?". I then had to apologize for the phone's inappropriate behavior.
I also know I'm not the only one who's experienced this, because I too was prank called by my friend's phone a couple weeks ago. I heard a muffled conversation that I assume was from his pocket.

That’s a bit of a nuisance; I hate getting those calls from people when their phone has obviously dialled you by mistake and all you can hear is the sound of the phone rattling in their pocket and some muffled conversation.

i heard that there was a prank phone call website that made calls like that because my phone called wendys by itself and my friend told me that he found a website that prank called people from the internet.
