>Ha, I don't even have a pager ... [trackable]

I use a one-way pager with a receiver-only module.

The downside to this is there is no error correction/receipt.confirmation.

>I simply schedule time with them when they want it, and set a 24 hour response expectation.

This is how it has to be done. I also require minimum billing hours if they don't meet this expectation (or don't show up within 15 minutes of scheduled start time).



A receiver only module? I was not aware this was a thing, but that would indeed avoid all tracking and allow a method for important notifications to reach you. This is a really interesting option for my needs.

I imagine this must only work over 2g or 3g? Sadly both are being shut down soon and I can not see anyone making a 4G pager.
