speed dial on iPhone. I need to dial a number and respond with options to the automated system.

How can I setup a speed dial to access my Voice Mail. I need to dial a number and respond with options to the automated system. In summary, how can I dial a number and have the phone automatically dial the number, the pin and the subsequent numbers to access my VM ?

From the iPhone User Manual: You can use these techniques in your contacts to set up a "speed dial".



Manually dial a number: Tap Keypad, enter the number, then tap Call.

  • Paste a number to the keypad: Tap the screen above the keyboard, then tap Paste.
  • Enter a soft (2-second) pause: Touch the “*” key until a comma appears.
  • Enter a hard pause (to pause dialing until you tap the Dial button): Touch the “#” key until a semicolon appears.
  • Redial the last number: Tap Keypad, tap Call to display the number, then tap Call again.
