  2. Turn off the “Leave a voicemail” option.

To disable the ability for customers to call you through Messages Plus, you should check the settings within your Square Dashboard or Square Point of Sale app. Here's a general guide:

  1. Square Dashboard: Log in to your Square Dashboard from a web browser.

  2. Navigate to Messaging Settings: Look for the settings related to Messages Plus or Customer Messaging within your account settings. There might be options to control how customers can contact you, including phone calls.

  3. Adjust Call Settings: Within the messaging settings, there should be options to enable or disable phone calls from customers. If there isn't a specific option to disable calls, there might be settings related to business hours or availability that indirectly control when calls can be received.

  4. Save Changes: After making any adjustments, be sure to save your changes to apply them to your account.

Thank you for your follow-up questions and providing that screenshot, @Berolina

Do you have the free version of Messages or are you working with Messages Plus?

That can be the reason your settings will look different from what @DammiAdservices described. 

 

Take a look at your subscription and let me know! I am happy to circle back with you on this.

@Berolina, when you mention that you would like to disable the ability for customers to call, are you referring to disabling voicemails from customers?

Both of those features were turned off, I turned on the follow up text message, now  instead of the call I get an email with a voice mail. That does not work obviously.

I am in the same boat. We do not want the phone call feature at all and cannot figure out a way to remove the option to "Call". Please update if you find a way to turn it off.
