- Pickup handset and dial your unlock number (as above)
- When the call is answered he extensions PIN number followed by a #
- The Phone system will read back to you "Access allowed by System" and disconnects the call.
- Dial the external number you wish to dial.
Things to note:
- Emergency numbers are excluded from being blocked at all times, so you can just dial 999 as required without unlocking.
