Probably the simplest is to say: Call me any time.

Hi Alex,
Have to challenge you on that, I'm afraid. To me that suggests subservience rather than availability.

see i wrote something to a loved one saying:
...whenever you need me...
always know that you can "call for me"...
this is correct? i was trying more for dramatic and promising rather then a simple "call me" in my writing. |

| In that context, I would have used "call on me." (Rely on me to help you." |
