You can define dialling plans to reduce costs:

u

You can define the connection (one of your VoIP accounts, the fixed line network) 

through which calls to specific numbers should be made and paid for. 
If you enter just a few digits (e.g. local area, national or mobile network code) any call 

to a number beginning with these digits will be made via the elected connection. 

u

You can block specific numbers, i.e. your phone will not establish a connection to these 

numbers (e.g. 0900 numbers). 

These dialling plans apply to all registered handsets. The settings for the default connec-

tion (briefly press/press and hold 

c) and the send numbers of handsets do not apply to 

numbers governed by a dialling plan. 

Tips: 

u

Compare the rates for long-distance calls (especially for international calls) offered by 

your fixed line network and VoIP providers, and determine which connection should be 

used specifically for these countries/locations, e.g. a dialling plan for the 

 

"0033" would apply to every call made to France.

u

Use dialling plans to define that numbers starting with a call-by-call number are always 

made via your fixed line network connection. To do so, enter the call-by-call number in 

the 

 field. 

u

The area code will also be prefixed to VoIP calls made to emergency numbers if there 

are no defined dialling plans for these numbers. 

u

The numbers of your network mailbox saved in the base station are not prefixed with 

a code (page 151). 

You can override dialling plans, with the exception of blocks, as follows:
– Dial the number with a line suffix (e.g. 123456789#3, see page 32). 
– Before you enter the number, define a different connection type by pressing the display keys 

/ 

If, for example, you press 

, the number will be dialled via the fixed line network, even if 

the dialling plan states that a VoIP connection should be used. 

Area code predialling is not prefixed to numbers governed by a dialling plan (page 148).
