    Girlfriend so!

    For any network just stick a 5 after the prefix.

    i.e. if its 0861234567
    dial 08651234567

    Just put a 5 in before the last 7 digits of the mobile number.

    E.g. 08X XXX XXXX
    becomes 08X 5 XXX XXXX

    Just incase you didn't get it, here it is again.

    You put 5 in between the network number and the rest of it.
    08X 5 XXXX XXX

    Well your avatar is blonde, but no I wasn't. I was making reference to the my observations of the amount of times the instructions had been repeated by different people.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,578 ✭✭✭Scraggs


    ah but if you observed further you would have noticed they were posted at the same time!!:v: :v:

    anyway no harm done......

    so come on scrags, how did ya nearly get fired?

    you do know the time the message was left is on the message when they listen to it, yeah?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 187 ✭✭morlan


    I find the 5 prefix a handy little thing.

    Example. If you were meant to call somebody but didn't want to speak to them, just leave them a voicemail and pretend you couldn't get through!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,378 ✭✭✭✭jimmycrackcorm


    If you are thinking of the "I couldn't get through" scam you might want to remember that the electronic announcement will say what time the message was left at....!

    "This message was left, Today at ....firing time"
