Has anyone ever seen the types of phones that require you to put money in before even calling the operator? I was faced with one of these last week. Even though I had the money, I was wondering....couldn't you get the operator by flicking the switch hook 10 times? Sure enough, it worked. Is this normal or was it just the phone I was on? I know it works from home phones but am not sure about a pay phone that won't even dial the operator w/o money. -Richard gt5909b@gtfelix
