My phone periodically doesn't receive calls or texts. I've tried resetting it. The calls don't show up in my missed calls but the voicemails do show up. I'm using the international version of the Note 8. Anyone know a fix?

Are you rooted or did you install any custom roms, etc.?

I have had this issue with several phones, the culprit has been always the type of connection, sometimes even if full bars showing, I have to switch to 2g or 3g, 4g and 3g having the issue, 2g working always fine, dont know why, but I have learned to live this way, this happening since my S3, so, In my case is carrier signal fault

What networks are you both on? If it is the same, that may be your answer...
I would check with the network to see if the masts are under maintenance.

I wrote a post here in March 2018, but, some time later the issue diasppeared, from june, all is fine, in the end, I think it was the carrier that was working on the transition to 4.5G to implement their VoLte calls service

I have the same issue, and i think it as to be with the position of the phone... when its down missed more than when its on vertical... could be just coicidence but its the only thing that i note
