Speed dial or diallling quickly problem

[la_familla]

when i use 141 and dial a nuber quickly, speedial or dial a number too quickly in general especially mobile numbers i get a message telling me the number that i have dialled is not recognised.

is this fault with the line, it cant be the phone as over the years we have changed/upgraded our phones a couple of times, the issue still remains

Hi la_familla,

I dont think this is a fault it is just the information hitting the telephone exchange to quickly. Does the number eventually connect?

Thanks

[la_familla]

it does connect only after re dialling.

is there anyway that this can be fixed because speedial feature comes in handy but only works after a few attempts.

Hi la-familla,

Assuming it is that the exchange can't keep up, then it's unlikely it will be resolved in the forseeable future.

What you could try as a work around, most phones that allow speed-dial, also allow for the insertion of pauses. Try inserting a pause between 141 and the number being dialled.

what about pause141pausenumber would that work sometimes have to wait for the phone to register a dial tone probalbly about a second or so.

Hi la_familla,

You should get a dial tone - then dial 141 - then pause - then enter number.
