Hi Jackie,
 
This is a simple one, and one I recommend everyone should follow.  Let me
explain.
 
My business mobile is 07956334938.  OK, now when you add me as a contact,
instead of adding me as 07956334938, add me as +447956334938.  Firstly, this
will always get picked up when you receive a text, because when the number
comes through from the mobile carrier, it comes through in that format, and
secondly, it means that you can dial that number from anywhere in the world,
without altering it.  For example, when you go abroad, you can still dial
that number.  So drop the 0 in your contacts, and add +44 instead.  Works
every time.
 
And for those that don't have their punctuation switched on, there is a plus
symbol before the 44.  To get that into your contacts, press star twice.
 
Hope this helps.
 
All the best
 
Steve

Hi Listers
 
Could someone please answer a quick question for me which I am posting on
behalf of a friend.
 
He has a Nokia 6600, and it seems that although he has added people to his
contacts book in the usual way, whenever messages arrive in his inbox from
them, TALKS is not telling him their names.  He has been into the menu to
check that first names are announced in his preferred order, but he is
completely baffled as to why the texts he gets do not say the names of his
recipients.  Frankly I can't work this out either.  Does anyone have any
ideas please?  Is it possible he has his display set incorrectly or
something?
 
Jackie
