I have to dial 18185 number for all my calls. I want to store some contact numbers and use speed dial. Does anybody know whether I can dial 18185 then the numbers I want to dial without pausing or do I need to dial 18185 then pause following by numbers I want. Thanks

Just edit them and add 18185 to the number dialled. No different to adding 0181 811 8181 to mobile contracts since they don't understand the concept of "local" numbers where you could just get away with 811 8181.So 18185 01632 275915 for example.Of course if you stop using 18185 you'd have to change them all back again but...0

Thanks for your help I will just add the prefix to all my contacts.0

Does 18185 require a pause before the intended number is dialled? If yes then you should be able to add a pause after 18185 and prior to the number ... may be the # key.

I use 18185 and have several commonly used numbers programmed into my old DEC phones with no pause ie 1818502920xxxxxx1
