Abbreviated Dialling

With Abbreviated Dialling you can store 10 of your most frequently called numbers in your Telecard® memory. These numbers can include national, mobile and international numbers or all of your Telecard Call Control Numbers.

• simply dial the Telecard access code (18918 from within Australia or the Australia Direct/Telecard Global Reach access numbers from overseas)
• enter your Telecard number and PIN followed by # and the selected abbreviated dial code (eg. 20#,21#, etc.) followed by # and your call will be connected.

To program new numbers or change your Abbreviated Dialling numbers, just call the Telecard Customer Service Centre on FREECALL™ 1800 038 000¹ (from within Australia) - if overseas, dial the access number, select the option "Telecard call to Australia" and follow the prompts.
