I hate late phone calls.

They wake you up and half the time they're the wrong number. Someone called twice after we told him he had the wrong number. It probably woke my parents up, because if he had called once that's okay, wrong number, but to call back within a couple minutes.. Not fond of calls past 10PM unless they're an emergency.
 
My number is not listed so less chance of getting people calling

The only time i get late calls is if its a emergency

which does not happen often
 
At a certain hour in the evening on my home phone, I set my answering machine to 1 ring. The only people who have my cell phone number is work and a few close friends. If my cell phone rings late at night, then at least I know it's not a wrong number.
 
I don't mind the calls as much as I do the late calls. If you're going to call that late, it better be good. If I'm already halfway asleep, I'll let it ring. However, if it rings twice in a row I'll get up. It's sort of code around our family and friends. If you need to talk to us immediately because it's something serious, call twice back to back. That's the only time I'll get up during the night if I'm already laying down, but still, wish people would be considerate and not call so late.
 
Our home number isn't listed in the phone book either, so the chances of us getting a wrong number call is very slim. It does happen, but not as often as it could if we were to be listed, though.
 
I only have a cell phone and I almost never get called. My friends know I don't like phone calls all that much so they just text me. I don't really mind at what hour they call or text, if it's late it usually means there's a party going on or they want to hang out so I wouldn't mind that.
 
I don't really know anybody and nobody wants to call me anyway, so I usually don't have to worry about 'late' phone calls. That said, I practically operate 24-hours, so 'late' is either never, or all-day.
