A Bobo is deserving victim of a practical joke. The Bobo phenomena started when I dialed a wrong number in New York City in 2001 and reached a rude person with a strong accent on his cell who told me I cost him $.75 and called me an 'Bobo' before hanging up. AS a result, a growing community of people began calling this person and asking for 'Bobo'. The calls usually went like this: - "Is Bobo there?" - "NO, THERE IS NO BOBO HERE. STOP CALLING FOR BOBO!" - "So, you are not Bobo? Where is Bobo?"" _"NO! I TOLD YOU THERE IS NO BOBO SO STOP CALLING THIS NUMBER AND TALKING ABOUT BOBO! THERE IS NO BOBO HERE!!" - "Bobo?" CLICK!
If you dialed 1 + area code + number and the call did not go through, the likely causes are: (1) You dialed the wrong number, (2) Although it is in a different state, the number you are dialing is a local call, and you live in an area that requires that you not dial '1' on local calls, or (3) Your phone is out of order.
That depends on where you're dialing from. In North America (USA, Canada, etc.), dialing 100 will get you an error recording telling you that you have dialed an invalid number. In some countries, dialing 100 will get you the local telephone operator. In other countries, it may get you some other service.
Butt-dialing is a term used for accidentally dialing a cellphone. This usually happens when someone has their cellphone in a back pocket when they sit down. This can cause buttons to be pressed on the cellphone, causing it to dial out, usually the last number that was dialed.
Subscriber Trunk Dialing is a term for customer-dialed long-distance calling. Rather than having to ring an operator to complete a long-distance call, the customer can dial the number him- or herself.
Direct-dialed long distance started in the United States in 1951, in the UK in 1958, and in India in 1960.
Some telephones, fax machines, and modems can use pulse dialing, because for many years, touch-tone dialing either was not available at all or required an extra monthly fee. In pulse dialing, the equipment sends a series of electrical pulses equivalent to rapidly connecting and disconnecting the telephone line. The count of pulses gives the digit being dialed.
The first direct-dialed long distance calls in the United States were in 1951. However, in the early days, the dialing procedure varied from place to place. Indeed, in many places, even until the early 1990's, you could dial a long distance call just by dialing the area code and number, without the '1' prefix.
It represents the need to put the international dialing prefix in there. The same number needs to be dialed differen ways when calling from different countries. It is usually the exit code for dialing internationally (from Canada and the US it is 011, from the UK it is 00) and then the country's country code (39 for Italy).
Before Direct Inward Dialing, if you wanted to reach a specific employee at a large company, you had to call the main switchboard and ask to be connected to that extension. DID allows you to dial a number that connects directly to the specific extension. For example, to reach extension 175, you might dial 555-0175. DID just means that each extension has its own direct telephone number that can be dialed from the outside without going through a switchboard or an automated attendant.
In some cases when automatically dialing a number, you may need to tell the autodialer to pause to allow for a secondary dial tone. For example, if you dial '9' to get an outside line on your business phone system, you may need to program a pause after the 9 to allow time for the outside dial tone.
The first Indian cities to be connected by STD (Subscriber Trunk Dialing) service were Kanpur and Lucknow in 1960. This allowed for long-distance calls to be dialed directly without operator assistance.
