I was just wondering has anyone on here dialled 999 before, either it for the police, or an ambulance.

I always wondered what they say when they answer the phone?

[Shaun]

Yes. I can't remember it though, was a couple of years ago.

[Twilight]

Nope. :P

[Josy]

Yeah and before I had even finished talking to the operater there was police and CID all over the place it was like something out of the bill.

[Kerry]

Yep. They ask which service you require then put you through to said service. Then they ask what the emergency is

[Jack_]

Nope...thankfully not...

[Stacey.]

Yeah when I was really young. I called it like not knowing what it was, and then I left the phone just there. My mum found out a minute later or something and asked who it was, and they weren't happy.. then she explained the situation to them :L

I once keyed in the emergency number on my mobile. Think it's a series of 1's (some universal number I think). It was in my pocket and the keylock was off. I ended up with some emergency person yelling out of my pocket asking if I needed help and to press 9 if I did. I hung up and was mortified

112 which you can dial even with the keylock on.

And nope I never have.

I must have done that. I was horrified. I was just walking through the park and a voice yelled out of my pocket! I thought I'd finally lost the plot!

Is it true that you can access 999 via internet?

They'd ask what service you require and then you just tell them

I need the police and an ambulance

[Kerry]

They know exactly how to deal with things. For example if you asked for the fire brigade the police would come along anyway. If you need an ambulance then the responder would assess what/whoever else you need.

For example I've been assaulted and rang an ambulance. Because it was an assault the police arrived also.

[MTVN]

112 is the EU emergency number I think

['Conor]

well that was a stupid question

is fire brigade on 999 aswell?
