If visa has been refused, do you get a call?

So my hubbys case has been in AP. Yesterday someone called him saying they need additional papers and then last night I checked our status and it said refused. They would call if it actually got refused right? She didnt say anything about it being refused on the phone. Im just really worried because its been a loong time and if this visa application gets refused, my whole future is literally ruined. I cant contact the embassy by phone but I emailed them. They take a while to reply but I just need something to put me at ease. They have his passport so if it got refused they would call to tell him to pick it up right?

They normally don't call when it gets refused, they normally send a letter.

That being said, it seems extremely unlikely they request additional papers and then the same day, with no time to receive let alone review those papers, deny the case. Maybe someone pressed the wrong button on the online portal. Have you tried calling DOS and see what they say?

Do you have a certain number that I should call? That would be extremely helpful! Ive only tried emailing the embassy because they dont allow phone calls but it took them two weeks to answer last time so Im not sure how long it would take now.
