[comp.dcom.telecom] Getting back at COCOTS

Are you sure it was an NJBell phone and not one of these silly
"ATT Pay Phones" that have been popping up around the state here.

My favorite pastime on these phones is to attempt to make various
calls using 10+ dialing on them.  My other trick is to make a standard
(presumably AT&T) long distance call, etner nonsense credit card numbers
("The card number you have enterd is not valid").  ATT will dump you after
the second try and then you will normally get a dial tone, unless the phone
is smart, which you can just dial what you want on.
