<h1>Mobile Phone Use Guide</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>After many years of using complicated radio systems of varying degrees of
|
|
complication and reliability, we have finally settled on a foolproof method for
|
|
communicating callouts from top camp to base camp: mobile phones. Cheap
|
|
Austrian pay-as-you-go mobiles have sufficiently good reception on the plateau
|
|
for sending SMS messages, and even occasionally for conversation.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>We are using the "B-Free" mobile scheme. This has an annual renewal of the SIM
|
|
which gets you the phone number and connection (plus some credit). More credit
|
|
comes in the form of a card with a scratch-off secret number.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Annual renewal</h3>
|
|
<p>This has to be done in less than 13 months otherwise it costs a great deal
|
|
extra (equivalent to starting from scratch). The phone cannot be used in the last month, but renewal is much cheaper
|
|
than starting from scratch.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Adding credit</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>If you need to buy more credits for a phone go to the Hartlauer shop opposite
|
|
Unimarkt/Konsum. Wave the phone and ask for a 'B-free Bon'. </p>

<ul>
|
|
<li>Scratch off the panel at lower right back of card</li>
|
|
<li>Dial 0800 664290 (if you're lucky someone might have put this in the phone
|
|
address book)</li>
|
|
<li>Listen to an audio menu and Press 2 (to select something)</li>
|
|
<li>Then type in number on the scratch panel, followed by #</li>
|
|
<li>Listen to an audio menu and press 2</li>
|
|
<li>Press No twice to end the call.</li>
