*

This character is used to request services

 

from the network. Contact your service

 

provider for details.

This character is not currently used.

 

 

p

This character creates a pause. Digits to the

 

right of the p are sent as touch tones after a

 

2.5-second pause.

 

Use this character to save phone numbers of

 

automated services that require you to enter

 

a password or other information after the

 

call is answered. For example, if your voice

 

mail number at work is 555-1212 and you

 

need to enter your extension (1234) and then

 

a password (5678) in order to listen to your

 

messages, you could save this phone number

 

as 5551212p1234p5678.

 

 

w

This character creates a wait. It works

 

similarly to the pause character except that

 

digits to the right of the w are not sent until

 

you press Send.
