IMPORTANT NOTE TO ALL MOBILE PHONE USERS
Do you know how to get emergency assistance from your mobile phone?
Call ‘000’ right?
If you don’t already know, here is some interesting information that may be helpful in
the event of an emergency:
For users with CDMA & GSM/digital mobiles – in the event of an emergency you can
call ‘000’ to get through to emergency services
For users with GSM/digital mobiles (not for CDMA users) you can call ‘000’ to get
through to emergency services but you can also dial ‘112’ to reach emergency
services. This ‘112’ number should be operational even when a phone is locked, SIM
card removed or the phone is out of service range of your home network but another
carrier’s service is available. This feature is not available with the ‘000’ number.
So, if you have a GSM/digital phone, you have two options, dial ‘000’ or ‘112’ and if
you have a CDMA phone you must dial ‘000’.
Please share this information with all friends, family, clients, etc., particularly
those with GSM/digital phones that are regularly out of normal range or drive through
‘dead spots' – because in those situations they should still be able to use the ‘112’
number.
If you do have a GSM/digital phone, perhaps you could store the ‘112’ number in your
speed dial so that in a panic you don’t have to remember the number as it is already
in your phone.
