I'd appreciate a bit of "how to do it" advice: the other day I was caught a Logan airport with fouled up accomodation reservations at my destination, so I whipped out my AmEx card and tried to use the C-a-C-Plus phone. Worked like a charm (one of the few times I've felt that I got something out of the deregulation!). BUT... I couldn't figure out how to get directory assistance. I tried a couple of things, but each time it claimed that the number was "not reachable fromthis phone". Eventually, I went to a REAL pay phone, coughed up $.60 got my number and then called it from the CaC+. *is* there some trick or technique or whatever for getting LD directory assistance on your credit card? (I don't have an AT+T Calling Card). Thanks /Bernie\ Bernie Cosell Internet: cosell@bbn.com Bolt, Beranek & Newman, Inc USENET: harvard!bbn.com!cosell Cambridge, MA 02238 Telco: (617) 497-3503
