Eleanor, Think that you best contact NCBI if you are interested in ggoing ahead with registering for that service! They can answer well those queries but I think that Flor has done a good job of answering, so you now can follow up from there! By the way don't think NCBI can assist me in my access problem of FDES but I will post them if other avenues close to me! Cheers and take it easy!

You would use exactly the same procedure as you have used. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Eleanor Burke" <eleanorburke@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <vip_students@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, July 24, 2010 5:37 PM Subject: [vip_students] Re: Free Inquiries With o2 It is excellent news Flor but if I an registered with it for landlie do I have to register with that form for mobile? I have a pin number at present which I give when I dial 196 Eleanor -original message- Subject: [vip_students] Re: Free Inquiries With o2 >From: "Flor Lynch" <florlync@xxxxxx> Date: 24/07/2010 2:18 pm Hi Tony, I'm using O2. To my surprise, I dialled 196 and got through to Directory Inquiries right away. In answer to a question from eleanor: this service is free as it has been for land-lines for several years, and now it's free for vision-impaired mobile phone users from most providers here also, once you register. You do this by filling out a form you can get from NCBI, etc. ----- Original Message ----- >From: "tony sweeney" <deirton711@xxxxxxxxx> To: "students list" <vip_students@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, July 24, 2010 2:25 AM Subject: [vip_students] Free Inquiries With o2 > Hi Folk, > I wonder if anyone of you tried the 196 number using o2from your > mobile? > Can't access it from my main mobile lately. > Contactting o2, no problem fromm there end. > Cheers, > Tony > >
