|
|
Hi everyone
I remember someone on this forum had a number that should be dialed from a Korean landline in order to make a collect call to credit card companies in the U.S.
I cannot find the number to save my life... I remember it was something like 6 or 7 digits maybe...
Does anyone have it?
Please? |

On the back of your card, it should have the number to dial. If not, you've got a strange credit card company.
You are in the net, do a search for the companies website. It'll be there. |

There is a number that needs to be dialed BEFORE calling the overseas collect number on the back of the card...
that is the number I'm looking for! |

Any trunk line for an international call:
00365
00388
002
are 3 of the cheaper ones.
eg: 00365-1-800-123-4567 |

If you want to get an operator to charge a collect call to anyone in the US, ie credit card company dial this number from Korea 00-729-11.
To get an operator in Canada call 00-722-015.
I think this is what you are looking for. The other numbers mentioned above will charge you. If you call these numbers you will get an operator, then give him/her the phone number of your credit card company. They will accept the charges. Done it many times. |
