Calls

your phone. Begin talking after your phone emits

Numbers

Every Direct Connect number has 3 parts — an
area ID, a network ID, and a member ID — with an
asterisk between each of these parts. For example:
999*999*9999.

When you place a Direct Connect call, you must
enter the whole Direct Connect number including
the asterisks.

Tip: When you store a Direct Connect number in

Contacts it is good practice to include the
whole Direct Connect number including the
asterisks in case you travel with your
phone, or another Direct Connect user
whom you are trying to reach travels with
their phone, outside of your network.
