number (for example, 555-555-1234).
Dial Direct Connect Numbers
You can make a Direct Connect call using one of the following ways:
If the person you are calling has a separate number for Direct Connect, make sure you
dial any asterisks (*) in the number. If you are saving the number in your Contacts,
choose DC Only for the phone type.
If the person you are calling has a single number for both voice calls and for Direct
Connect, use that ten-digit phone number to make Direct Connect calls. You do not
need to add any asterisks (*) to the number. If you are saving this number in your
Contacts, choose Mobile+DC for the phone type.
Note: One way to easily ensure that your contacts have your correct number is to call them so
that they can save your number from their Call Log. Ask them for their contact information.
Remember you will need all digits of the number to make a successful call.
