Have you confirmed with one of your contacts that they have installed the latest Alexa app version and enabled the voice services? That way you will know of at least one contact that should appear in your list.

I also like the way the Intercom works. A family member can just say "Alexa Call Mike" from any Echo in the house and all of the other Echos plus my cell phone start ringing. Whichever place I answer from it immediately turns into a hands free point-to-point call. I like how it is hands free both to initiate and pick up the call (unless I pick it up on the cell) and folks use the same method to reach me regardless if I am in the house or off somewhere.
A cool new feature for my existing Echos and will be even better when my Echo Shows arrive.
As an intercom, a bit weird to have to call 'myself' to reach other family members in the house..... but it's a start.

I could see some utility for example if you don't know if someone is in the house, it will call both the Echo(s) and the linked cell phoneDSteiNeuro

If you have multiple Echos, when you message yourself, they all turn green. So when I am in the garage, I can send a message to my wife in the kitchen. It's like a whole house intercom. I like this!

Here we have 3 echo and 2 dots. It works great as a whole house intercom. Once the family member answers, only those two echos are connected for a hands free intercomBlair
