Verizon has a reliable and wide-range phone network, but often an automated voice says that “All circuits are busy. Try again later”. This message usually means that there are some issues while connecting the call to a non- Verizon user. 

How To Fix This Issue?

The first thing one should do when they hear the automated voice saying “All Circuits are busy”, is to reboot their phone. Verizon describes that this problem usually arises when there are any issues with the non- Verizon user’s network. Though some users have reported that the problem has arisen when they’ve tried contacting another Verizon user. 

Try calling other phone numbers (both Verizon and non- Verizon users), to check if the audio message is still there. Confirm whether those people are on another call through a text message.

Sometimes the issue arises due to an unstable network from the tower. Sometimes the call doesn’t go through, and you get the message that the line was busy. In this case, try to get to a place where the network is more stable, and then try making the call again.

Try restarting your device. You can turn your phone off by pressing the lock button on the side of your smartphone. For Android users, select restart from the Menu, and if the restart button is not present then choose to Turn Off.For iOS, a power slider appears, dragging the slider to the other end to power off the phone.When your phone is completely off, then turn it back on by long-pressing the power button.If you select the Restart option earlier, then your phone will turn back on automatically.

Try to disconnect your phone from the network, and try connecting it back again.Eject your SIM card from your device and re-insert it after cleaning the SIM with a clean and dry cloth or tissue. Switch on your device, and try calling again.

Try activating and deactivating your device’s Aeroplane Mode. Airplane mode turns off all the wireless connections from your mobile including Bluetooth, WiFi, and mobile network. This way is quicker than rebooting your phone as it takes seconds to do this.In Android:Open Setting -> Go to Networks and Wireless -> Turn on Airplane Mode/ Flight Mode. -> Wait for a few minutes and turn it back off.

For ios:

Swipe from the bottom of the screen (iPhone X and higher versions need to swipe down from the top-right corner of the screen) -> Open Control Center -> Tap the Airplane Symbol and turn on the mode. -> After waiting for a few minutes, turn Airplane mode off.Afterward, try calling the number again and see if the issue persists.

There are chances that there are issues on the other user’s end, or they might be on another call. So, by some other means, like a text message, or through DMs of any social media app, reach out to them, and ask them to call you back, or just let them know that there are some network issues at their end.

Contact Verizon support. Call the customer care helpline and explain your problem to Verizon’s technical team. Verizon is well known for its quick customer support. The technical team will patiently listen to your request and resolve the issues as fast as they can.
