I am trying to use one of those KT phone cards to call home. Everyone assured me that it will work, even the operator. Only problem is .

It f****** doesn't!

What am I doing wrong? I dialled 0011 + area code
but I don't even finish that far and I get a recording in Korean telling me that I can't do it that way.

I asked the operator, she said that I was doing it right.


I tried 3 different phones .......

arrrghhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!


Now that I've worked up all this adrenaline, can anyone help me?

Thanks in advance

Sorry about that. The pc bang net connection kept timing out, so I assumed that it didn't get posted.

Anyway, any info on the calling?

Cheers

I've had this happen at least three times today. I think that it is happening everywhere. Slow internet today. I keep re-posting because I don't think it has gone through- one time I posted the same reply seven times!
