The landline telephone continues to be a proven and reliable means of communication. You can call it both from other city numbers and from cell phones. The main thing is to dial the number correctly.
Instructions
Step 1
To call from one landline phone to another, after picking up the receiver, wait for a dial tone, dial 8, and after it you will hear another dial tone. Dial the area code, then the subscriber's number. Wait for an answer. In small cities, to call within the same code, you often do not need to dial either 8 or a code - only a number. In large cities, you need to dial both of them even when calling within the same code, and there can be more than one codes for one city. If your phone code is the same, but the called subscriber's code is different, but the call takes place within the same city, the cost of a minute of conversation usually corresponds to the local one.
Step 2
To call from a mobile phone to a landline, dial all the numbers together: 8, area code, number of the called subscriber. The number 8 can be replaced by +7, and the method of dialing a plus depends on the phone model. Usually, for this, you need to hold down the key with zero for a long time, or, on other devices, quickly double-click on the asterisk. Please note that the cost of a call depends not only on which city you are calling, but also on where you are: in your home region (that is, the one where you purchased the SIM card) or in another.
Step 3
If you are calling from a device connected to a PBX, first dial the combination of numbers corresponding to the exit to the city line. It depends on the model and settings of the PBX. Then dial number 8 (sometimes it is not required), area code and subscriber number. The need to wait for a dial tone after dialing any numbers also depends on the PBX settings. The exit to the long-distance city can be blocked, and if not, then before making any such calls, obtain the prior permission of the organization's administration.
Step 4
Some mobile operators provide the possibility of unlimited (or limited to a certain number of minutes per day) calls to landline numbers on much more favorable terms than full unlimited tariffs. Check with your operator's support service if they provide this service.
