To use it I must: 1. Enter 800xxxxxxx to access some phone network 2. wait for the dial tone 3. Enter 0XXXXXXXXXXX to get to the number I really want 4. Wait a little bit 5. Enter the credit card number and pin. I can't figure out how to do this. My first attempt was to put it in the dial string but the number was too long and the timing became incorrect. I read about "chat", if that is my solution, I don't understand how to implement it.
