Alcatel phone asks for cost prior to allowing calls to be made, how to turn this off

Do you have the ringer volume turned all the way down which is to say you hear no ring, check that first, if the ringer volume is turned up then the phone is defective and needs to be repaired or replaced depending on cost.

Hi Teresa

If I remove the sim card from my iPhone it will show SOS and allow me to make an emergency call only.
This is what sos is for. (Save Our Souls)

So, check your sim card and mobile carrier contract
then sos will be replaced by the carrier name.

Cheers

i need the network key for alcatel phone model ce1588

normally this feature is enabled by the phone co. this allows you to activate and de activate the call divert
so call the phone co and ask them is this feature enabled on your line and what are the codes you use to turn feature on/off
i am referring of course to a single business line and not a pabx environment...i hope this helps in some small way
