Calling Card Option

Use VoiceLine even when you are away from your broadband connection

The VoiceLine Calling Card Option extends your VoiceLine service to any phone. Even if you are away from your VoiceLine-connected phone, you can still use your VoiceLine account -- as a calling card. You simply dial your VoiceLine phone number or a local access number (the same number you can use to retrieve VoiceMail messages) and then place a local, long distance, or international call.

These calls are not deducted from the monthly minutes in your calling plan. You pay per-minute rates for all of your Calling Card calls.

To enable the Calling Card Option:

  1. Pick up the handset of your VoiceLine-connected phone and dial *00.
  2. Press 1 after the prompt to enable the Calling Card Option.
 

To disable the Calling Card Option:

  1. Pick up the handset of your VoiceLine-connected phone and dial *00.
  2. Press 2 after the prompt to disable the Calling Card Option.
