I've heard complaints about folk 'accidentaly' ringing the emergency services from their mobbys whilst it's in their pocket. Yea right I thought. The chances of those numbers being 'accidentally pressed, followed by the green 'send' button must be pretty remote....I thought, until yesterday. ::)
It happened to me as i noticed whilst trawling for a number I'd earlier rang. eeek:
10:37 today (yesterday) 999!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! scared:
Don't know how long I was connected to them but I was mighty shocked tbh.
What is the point in having a 'lock keys' button, if it's totally by passed by dialling 999? noooo:
-
Because the idea is if you are in an emergency situation ie being raped then the fewer buttons you have to press the better.
-
Welcome back. rubschin:
And I have done this too. It must happen all the time
-
Yea I know about the saving of time arguement, but just how long does it take to unlock your phone? 1 second? 2 seconds? noooo:
Their is obviously no point in the emergency services telling us to lock our phones then really is their? The locking system should....imo....include locking out 999 to save all this grief.
I was genuinely upset about this yesterday as it must be so damned annoying for them.
-
No point at all!
It isn't so much the time factor as the panic factor really.

Welcome back. rubschin:
Ey? Haven't been away. confused:

Is it just me or is she doing this deliberately?

We thought you were sulking!
All set for Saturday afternoon? Oh and Wenchy seeks your advice in the Car department
-
I suppose the answer is to have one of those trendy flip top phones that conceals all the buttons.
I'm going to get in touch with Nokia to see if their is some way of preventing this happening again.
Must surely be a simple soft ware issue? rubschin:
-
Perhaps they will suggest keeping your phone in a holder attached to your trouser belt rather than in your trouser pocket. Simple but effective measures usually work best.

Who, in their right mind, is going to rape Growler. I mean ~ he's a nice chap and all that but ............ noooo:

I suppose she could be leaning over the keyboard and hitting keys at random.

If she is owt like my wife, it will take her 5 minutes to find it in her handbag. Besides, if you're being raped, I doubt you have time to press 4 buttons, ask for the Police and explain the nature of the crime and your whereabouts. Plod will no doubt stroll along half an hour later, when he's finished lecturing motorists and smokers to take a few photos of your body. If (heaven forfend) you are ever in that situation Wenchy, I advise you to scream your lungs off and run like fuck.
