Wireless Access Service
Dialing Instructions
It is easy to make long distance calls on your cell phone. Just follow a simple dialing procedure below.
- Dial the local access number (of the location you are calling from) from your Wireless Access activated cell phone. Program the access number into your cell phone's speed dial for future use.
Note: Never dial "1" or "0" before the access number, even if prompted by the automated message of the wireless carrier. Your call will be considered long distance and billed by the wireless carrier, as well as Primus. Simply try to dial another access number of the location you are currently in or moving towards.
- Listen for the continuous dial tone.
- Dial the number you wish to call. Do not press send again.
For calls within Canada and to the US (including the countries and territories, sharing the North American country code "1"):

Dial 999 + country code + city/area code + phone number you wish to reach
