    It depends on the situation! Sometimes a quick message is all you need, but often I'll find I can explain something quickly over the phone, whereas it'd require a lot more time to write up a text and proof read it etc. What do you prefer @ellie2000? Are there any situations where you find phone calls useful?

    Also team text over phone calls - unless its someone I know, but making calls to people I don't know or companies etc makes me slightly anxious

    @Slinky @Azziman @sinead276 @Katie12 I don't pick up unknown number or not, also if u get a call claiming they are 'hmrc' its a cold caller(not real)
    I like texting, u can't show ur distraction methods on the phone weather it's clapping etc. In the time u don't no wat to say
