FREE LONG DISTANCE ON TELUS PAY AND TALK! BY Stalins Sidekick Please note that I will not be held responsible for anything that happens out of the use or inability to use this information. This is for educational use only, and should be used accordingly. I'm just sharing what I learned. No, I'm not paying your bills, or paying you because some Telus asshole came and decided to make a punching bag out of you, or, knowing their employ, out of your ass. And no, if you fuck up and use this wrong or it doesn't work for you, you can't make a punching bag out of me or my ass either, no matter how much you might like it. And erase the thought from your mind you sick fuck!!! INTRODUCTION: I'm sure everyone who owns a phone (land line or cellular) would be very happy to be able to make long distance phone calls where the phone company gets stuck with their billing system's thumb up it's ass because someone learned how to confuse it. Well, it just so happens that I found a way to do just that. I will detail what you need below, and then I will describe how exactly I figured it out, and what you need to do to do it yourself. It's actually very easy, I can't believe that Telus fucked up so badly with their system. WHAT YOU NEED: 1. A cell phone would be nice, (digital is probably best, it might work with analogue phones but I don't have one so couldn't tell ya if it will or not) 2. Being signed up with Telus's Pay and Talk plan. (Please note that I am in southern Alberta, so I can't tell ya if this works elsewhere. Try it and find out.) 3. Having Evenings and Weekends (one of the add-on features available for $25 a month on Pay and Talk) Remember, that Pay and Talk means that the plan is totally flexable. That means that you don't need to lock into a constant evenings and weekends plan. If you don't buy it for the month, you just don't have it until you add it, and it's valid for 30 days after you add it on. 4. Was there something else, nope, thats all. A mouth to talk with and an ear to listen, and maybe a finger to punch buttons and you're set. HOW I FIGURED THIS ONE OUT: It all started when I was dating this bitch long distance. The opposite sex seems to have a way of making one do almost anything. Well, this was an issue of (pay big ass bills to those bastards at Telus so that I could be on the phone with my EX-GF (something which can't be avoided without serious female bitching because of the lack of communication), or indirectly still talking to a very bitchy EX-GF, but at the same time, kindly telling Telus to go fuck themselves while I make several hours free use out of their system. I discovered it by accident really, and when I found it I couldn't believe what I had going. I'd phoned her for the usual big bill of the day, but I decided to block my number before calling. At this time I restricted the call times to about 10 minutes max. At the end of the call I hung up first, and she hung up after. I checked my minutes and "WHAT THE FUCK!!! I DIDN'T GET CHARGED FOR THAT CALL!" So lets just say that Telus lost about on average of 1 or 2, sometimes 3 hours a day to my little exploit, which must not have made them happy at all. And, if you're lucky, and she'll give ya it, you might even get some free phone action!!! For anyone that has to sink to that, hey, it beats $5 a minute to listen to some whore tell it to ya over the phone. Not that this bitch wasn't a whore, I mean, I put the phone down one time to go and get a drink, and I guess she decided to kiss the phone, and she was kissing it for probably 5 or 10 minutes while I was gone, because when I picked up the phone again when I got back, she was still at it. Ok, so I don't know why you'd want to know that, just sayin that the pros aren't always the best. Ok, enough chatter, heres how you can do it. Really, you can. 1. Punch in the number like this "*671403xxxxxxx" (No dumbass, you don't put the quotes "" in it, just whats inside them and yes yes, the xxxxxxx part is the phone number, not real x's.) 2. Press talk or send or whatever the hell your cell's call button is. 3. "blah blah blah" away as long as you want. 4. Make sure that you hang up before your other person does. And thats it, a free call, courtesy of Telus. Make sure you test it first before you try making any extravagant calls with it. Remember that the number has to be blocked with *67 and you have to hang up first for it to work. On a land line, you have to dial *67 and wait for a dial tone to dial the number, but not on a cellular phone. It's all one string, and call blocking is free. Oh ya, one other thing, it does not work to phone another cell phone. It only works to phone land lines. I found this out the hard way. Have fun and happy freaking!
