1. How to program my phone for speed dial

You should have received a vCard via SMS containing the speed dial numbers. If not please send an e-mail to support@mobilesos.co.uk and we will SMS you the numbers.  Alternatively the numbers are displayed on Customer area of the  web site under the heading Speed dial numbers. 

Once you have added the relevant speed dial number to your SIM or phone  you need to assign keys to the relevant number.  We suggest you assign key [4] to the "I'mOK"  number, key [5] to "Panic" number and key [6] to the "Help" number 

As every phone is different  you should follow carefully the instructions in your phone's user manual or on-screen menu.Below find some instructions for a couple of phones
