AnonyMouse_3139 Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 Hi, just been on a first aid course and found out something non of us knew. If you need to dial for an ambulance or other emergency from a mobile phone apparently 112 gets you to the closest transmitter, 999 gets you to the closest transmitter for your network, which in the tutors experience can put a call through to a service 100 miles away. Not something I can test but thought I'd share it with you
Guest Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 Thanks Rea, Lets hope we never have to use it ( Your deputy didn't need emergency services after your "rant" tonight, did she ) It also helps to; 1. Have your mobile with you ( mines never with me) 2. Turn it on 3. Charge it up Peggy
Guest Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 That's a very useful piece of info Rea. Thanks! Linda
Guest Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 Keep a spare charger at work you can still use a mobile phone while charging. The information about 112 is contained in your BT phone book at the front.
AnonyMouse_2732 Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 But, Believe me, if you're at base, 999 works really well !! A user! Sue
