It seems like wheenver I hit GOOG-411, the unit dials some 425 #. It's Goog 411, but it seems like the wrong area code. Anyone else see anything like this?

i doubt anyone would reply to this as your request is faaar to vague.

 

What unit?

Connected I assume to what phone?

How are you 'asking' it to dial?

 

I don't have mine yet but I'm sure with this info you're closer to getting an answer of some sort.

 

:wink:

Sorry, the F90BT unit connected by bluetooth to my iPhone (first gen, 2.0 software) using the 'GOOG-411' icon in the Phone screen.

Mine dials a 425 number also, I live in Tacoma and were 253, but when I call my voicemail it dials a 425 number too.

 

425 is the eastside of Seattle.

Anyone have time to call Pioneer and ask whats up? I get the feeling that someone at the factory programmed in some wrong-#...

I had reported this to Pioneer some days ago, and today I actually got a call from them. They said the 425 number is not a mistake but is the number that google requested for the system. They explain that it is a collect number and there is no charge. So any one know what a collect number is????

a collect number mean u pay for the call i think...not a toll free number

Actually, a "collect" call means the person you are calling pays for it.

 

Don't any of you have any trouble-making friends?

 

(Edit - Meaning friends that get in trouble. Of course we all have trouble making friends, why else would be posting on a damned pioneer fan forum on a Friday evening.... sorry, couldn't resist)

 

Am I the only one who has gotten the "You have a collect from drunk buddy at the such and such county jail. Will you accept the charges?" call at 3 am on a Tuesday night?

My unit tries to dial the 415 area code, and I'm in Toronto, Canada- does anyone know for sure if it is actually a collect call? The last thing I want is a bunch of long distance calls to the US on my bill...

 

Additionally, is there a way to edit the number GOOG-411 uses, such as theri 1-800 instead?

I recently heard of Justdial, a 24x7 operator-assisted toll-free concierge service. I dialed 1800-500-0000 to try the service, and was amazed when a human voice answered my query within 60 seconds. Justdial really delivered what they promised.

I recently tried a new toll-free service by Justdial (1800-500-0000). It guarantees to pick your call in one ring, and answer queries within 60 seconds. I couldn't believe it, until I tried the service. It really works great! I think Justdial has given a completely different meaning to toll-free services.
