Wasn't there talk about having an automated message ask you to press 1 or something to stop all of those mis-intended 999 calls?
Only problem being, if the phone is locked and will only let you dial 999 for emergencys does this block stop once the call is connected??
Another crazy thing is I once had to dial 999 on the motorway to report a crash and the system confirmed my number to the operator, who then asked me to confirm it, and then when I was transferred to the right emergency service I had to repeat it again !!! Absolutely crazy practice !!
