Make sure you are saying the name exactlyas the system saved it. For example, if thecontact name is Joe Wilson, say "Call JoeWilson".You may not be sayingthe name exactly as thesystem saved it.The system works better if you list fullnames such as "Joe Wilson" rather than"Joe".
Do not use special characters such as 123or ICE as the system does not recognizethem.
