I never make phone calls or leave voicemail messages in English.

Hello Jonon,

I'm afraid our House rules don't allow you to share contact information such as phone numbers. Sorry!

All the best

2.Do you ever make phone calls or leave voicemail messages in English? I usually make phone calls, so I will be able to explain exactly what I want, where and from who. I think communication through phone is the best way to receive accurate information and to give. Just a few times I left a voicemail message when i wasn't able to reach my friends, but i made sure to be clear and to follow the information in detail.
