Any way of removing built-in numbers from Samsung Galaxy Ace?
Options
As above - we bought a Galaxy Ace for our 13 yo son, on a £10 a month contract with Talk Mobile. However a few times he has incurred extra call charges, on closer inspection it's been when he's accidentally called the Directory Enquiries number that is built into his phone - at £2 a call, these quickly mount up! :eek:
Is there any way to delete this number from his contacts? There's no way he needs it, but unfortunately as it's next to "Dad" in his contact list, I worry that he may continue to accidentally call it!
Thanks in advance for any help

If you can't delete it, can you maybe rename it (to XXX)?No free lunch, and no free laptop0

I've just deleted it on mine - tap it in the contacts list so it comes up on screen. Don't hit dial but select the left hand options button below the screen - choose delete and its gone. Well it is so far.Adventure before Dementia!0
