On my Three S2 I set up a bunch of speed dial nos. for 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 etc. To each was assigned a call-through no. of the form: 3510200pppp00441234123456 However this no longer works from a single speed dial no. It seems that the 3510200 &/or indeed any string of nos starting with 3510200nnnnn... is not recognised by Three either from a speed dial setting or as a no. in its own right. In fact 3510200 doesn't work if it is assigned to a speed dial no. You HAVE to manually dial it. Then after it connects (60% of the time) you then HAVE to manually dial the no. 00441234123456 (or whatever). CJB.

I've also tried pppp3510200pppp00441234123456 The only way I've gotten it to work is manually dialling 3510200, then manually dialling 00441234123456 Chris B.

But will try that. Funnily when I first set this up it all worked perfectly for about a week. Then it stopped working. I think either 3510200 &/or Tree wised up to what was going on and put a block on it. Perhaps they read these posts!! Chris B.
