I've been trying out 10xxx-0- access from payphones, and I'm getting confused. I thought it should go: 10xxx-0-ten digit <blat> card number where in my case <blat> says "MCI." But the end result is a voice-droid that says "Please enter a valid calling card number" when it *IS* valid. MCI, of course, claims to have NEVER heard of FGD access. What gives? wb8foz@mthvax.cs.miami.edu (305) 255-RTFM [Moderator's Note: What gives, very simply, is that what you are trying to do only works with Bell/ATT calling cards. You can still use 10222 or whatever, but you need to give a Bell/ATT card. To use your MCI card, dial 950-1022 or 800-950-1022. It will work that way. PAT]
