Answer a call with a message
In SfB, it was possible to answer a call with a message (the call was denied, but chat window opened).
I used this functionality quite often. I looking forward for this feature!
so please add a third button to the incoming call dialog, which denies the call, inform the caller that I am selected to answer with a message and open the chat window to the caller.

It's already built in for the situation when someone asks you to join an ongoing meeting for which you were invited.
Please extend this functionality to respond to regular calls. -

Agreed, I feel like I am being rude every time I deny a call in Teams. Please add a quick chat reply or predefined response options.

Please do add this function, if it worked in Skype....well, how hard can it be to fix it in Teams?

This option is indeed something I miss painfully (or rather I am so used to Skype). Unfortunately this option does not exist (yet).

I would like to vote for this please and also to get an email in outlook if a call is missed in teams and a voicemail message is not left.

This would be especially useful in situations where one is already in a call.
If one could simply quick reply a standard message (as with actual calls on a cell phone and the standard SMS-replies available). -

Even if it's limited to a a group of messages -- like I can't talk right now -- this would be helpful!

I agree with Skype there was that functionality and with teams there isn't. It would be nice to send a quick message without interrupting the call you are on

that function would be really useful for me, as I get a lot of VC calls via the 'Meet Now' function and all I can do is reject calls without giving a reason - meaning the caller will just keep calling me, until I pick up my phone and send them a text message. So yes please add a third button to the incoming call dialogue which tells the caller that I'm on another call and cannot take his/hers.

Indeed this functionality is missing. It was heavily utilized in SFB

This is really missing functionality, which was appreciated in Skype. I used it a lot.

Would be great to have this feature on mobile as well. Rejecting a call without any justification can feel a bit harsh. It would be helpful to have suggestion of messages, such as "I'm in a call right now, will call you back soon!" or "I'm busy at the moment, is the matter urgent?"

A quick response to decline calls would really help to continue the task your working on. Just like on mobile phone's this seems to me a basic feature.
