"What do you get if you dial 0943225456667443643455?" / "A SORE finger!" Hehehe... That was a popular childhood joke. But seriously, do you know that there are people that frequently dial long digits whenever they want to place a call, especially international calls? If you have made international calls before, where you will be required to put in the international and country codes before dialing your number, you will agree with me that putting in all those digits each time you make a call can be very tiresome. It was based on this that the calling cards providers came up with the Speed Dial feature, a brilliant innovation to tackle this inconvenience.
Speed dial allows you make calls to stored phone numbers by simply dialing a one or two digit number, rather than a long and complicated international number. Thereby, offering you convenience at no extra cost. However, it is important to note that not all calling card has this feature. So check that out before choosing a calling card.
Here are the tips on how to use the speed dial;
1. Create a speed dial list of all the numbers you call frequently
2. Dial the access number of the calling card
3. When asked to enter your destination number, dial the speed code followed by the # sign. The phone number will be dialed automatically for you by the system.
Finally, speed dial is a fast way to connect with your loved ones around the globe without going through the hassles of dialing lengthy phones codes and numbers. It’s easy and convenient to use.
