I've had the same problem with all my sim families in Belladonna Cove with the phone hack, always having to do it twice. I took out the phone hack, but left in the phone talk module, so it doesn't happen anymore. This was happening with all the families on any of the pre-existing lots. I only use the DC so :-\.
I am not able to reproduce this issue on any ACTUAL lots. Premade lots tends to be full of massive borkedness anyway. You can try deleting the phone line controller and reloading the lot to respawn it, maybe that will help.
Ruann:
Call Targets appeared on the Newson family despite none of the Sims being employed. I did notice that it only shows up if Sims are actually available to be called, though, and if they are not already Friends, and thus more appropriately handled under Call Friends.
As far as sims picking up the phone and dropping it right away, I noticed this ONLY happens if I ignore a phone call until it auto-drops and then attempt to do a Call Sim. I need to play around with the screening features because the stupid "hey, want a magazine subscription?" calls will ring for freaking EVER if you don't pick them up.

I really hope you can find out what might be causing this, because the constant whining from "friends" and the stupid "would it kill you to call" messages drove me so crazy I had to put this phone hack back in. I would rather have to do it twice!

Unrelated. The Phone Hack doesn't modify phonebook generation. You probably have a different hack stopping this, or perhaps they are secretly loitering stuck offworld.

nor am I able to call to socialise with any of my service sims.
Didn't an EAxis patch address this? Are you patched?
