…and just to think, the 'minor' tweak took them more than a year to achieve. Rogers = FTL!

They *do* let you turn it off in the MyRogers online account interface.

Thank god. Getting a text EVERYTIME you miss a call even when the phone is on is annoying as hell. Especially when you are busy and purposely not answering your phone…

That's a good point. But alas, this is the Rogers way.

That's great but why would they use:

01:604987-5432 @ 9:42 AM 2009/06/19

And not something infinitely more parsable:

01:604-987-5432 @ 9:42 AM 2009/06/19

Concatenating the area code with the prefix is moronic.

Great news. This will make this feature usable instead of just annoying. I had turned it off not long after getting my iPhone because it did not serve any function. You get a notice from the iPhone of a missed call, you get a notice that you have a voicemail and then you get ANOTHER message (a text) telling you about a missed call. It was great for a few months and then it started up again. I phoned Rogers again to turn it off and was told they couldn't turn it off anymore. Let's just hope it works as advertised now.

I am not a fan of WhoCalled feature. For me, I personally don't care who called me when my phone was off â€“ and if they choose not to leave a message, then it's not important. If it is important â€“ the caller will call again or would have left a message in the first place.

Like some other commenters here â€“ I would prefer if Rogers would allow me to turn the entire WhoCalled feature OFF in MyRogers online account interface.

Understandably, this feature may be of value to some – but NOT for me.
