As soon as it’s 5-30 or I’ve texted any gate customers it’s turned off
Then Friday afternoon stays off till Monday

This is why I have used 2 mobiles since day 1

If in doubt.....Leave it out !!

I ignore anything after 6pm on weekdays.

I ignore all calls and texts on the weekends, leave them until Monday.

Some people really do take the P. An ex 3 monthly customer that sacked me last October because apparently it was going dark earlier and she doesn’t want them doing and she’ll contact me in the spring- txt me at 8pm last night asking if I could fit her in next week for a one off ffs  ::)roll

I've previously had phone calls and texts late in the evening.
All I do now is set my mobile on "quiet hours" from 8pm to 7am and just allow selected numbers to get through (friends and family).
