[-]-[-]-[-]-[-]-[-]-[-]-[-]-[-]-[-]-[-] | GTE Recordings... | | By: BABY DEMON | | Of: SHADOW BROTHERHOOD and | | NEON KNIGHTS | [-]-[-]-[-]-[-]-[-]-[-]-[-]-[-]-[-]-[-] | Rock 'N' Roll Hell - [503] 253-5300 | | Metalland West 10m - [503] 538-0761 | | The Grand Illusion - [503] 665-0539 | [-]-[-]-[-]-[-]-[-]-[-]-[-]-[-]-[-]-[-] | | | [02/21/86 - 10:26pm] | | | | This is basically a list of some | | different recordings that GTE uses, | | and how to access them by calling | | the recording itself... | | | | RECORDING #1: [503] 620-0041 | | This is GTE's own version of get- | | ing a hold of a wrong number: | | "We're sorry, your call cannot | | be completed as dialed. Please | | check the number and dial again, or | | ask your operator for assistance." | | | | RECORDING #2: [503] 620-0042 | | This recording is received when | | calling your own number: | | "Number you have dialed is on | | your party line, please hang-up and | | allow sufficient time for the party | | you are calling to answer before | | you return to the line." | | | | RECORDING #3: [503] 620-0043 | | You get the next one while your | | talking to someone while they call | | you on their other line: | | "Someone on your line is call- | | ing you, please wait a moment for | | them to return to the line." | | | | RECORDING #4: [503] 620-0045 | | This recording is received when | | there's some probs with the fone | | companies shit: | | "We're sorry, due to telephone | | company facility trouble your call | | cannot be completed at this time. | | Will you try your call later?" | | | | RECORDING #5: [503] 620-0046 | | You'll hear the following when | | you're calling somewhere that gets | | a lot of calls, places like radio | | stations get this a lot, it's when | | all the people possible are trying | | to call, and it can't handle any | | more, so it drops you to this gap: | | "We're sorry, all circuits are | | busy now, will you please try your | | call later?" | | | | RECORDING #6: [503] 620-0047 | | Ya get the recording coming up | | when some a-hole is screwing you | | over by taking yer line out, or the | | fone co. is gettin' ya back for the | | bill ya didn't pay last month...A | | good one to trip people out if you | | have 3-way: | | "Your line has been temporar- | | ily disconnected. For service, | | please contact our customer billing | | center toll free at 1-206-823-8655."| | | | RECORDING #7: [503] 620-0048 | | If you hear the next recording | | then you have a number that's no | | good, and you're using some added | | feature in yer calling: | | "We're sorry, your call cannot | | be completed as dialed, please | | check your instruction manual or | | call the business office for ass- | | istance." | | | | RECORDING #8: [503] 620-0049 | | You'll hear the next recording | | when ya have speed-calling, and you | | fuck the number up: | | "We're sorry, the code you | | have dialed is not active, please | | hang-up and dial the complete num- | | ber, or re-establish your speed- | | calling code." | | | | RECORDING #9: [503] 620-0050 | | GTE plays this one for ya when | | there's mass calls going through at | | one time, and their system can't | | handle it: | | "We're sorry, due to heavy | | calling we cannot complete your | | call at this time, will you please | | hang-up, and try again later. If | | your call is urgent, please try | | again now." | | | | RECORDING #10: [503] 620-0051 | | This is just GTE's basic way of | | saying yer call didn't make it: | | "We're sorry, you're call did | | not go through. Will you please | | try your call again?" | | | | RECORDING #11: [503] 620-0055 | | I'm not too sure about the next | | one, but I believe that the trench | | is trying to say that you left your | | fone off the hook, and something's | | wrong: | | "Please hang-up, and if you'd | | like to make a call try it again, | | if you need assistance, please hang-| | up and dial the operator." | | | | RECORDING #12: [503] 620-0056 | | This one is a cool one for really | | trippin' people out, it's the re- | | cording you get when dialing from a | | payfone without putting a quarter | | in, it asks for 25 cents: | | "The call you have made re- | | quires a 25 cent deposit. Please | | hang-up momentarily and listen for | | dial tone, deposit 25 cents, and | | dial your call again." | | | | RECORDING #13: [503] 620-0059 | | The final one, another strange | | one, it's played when calling a 911 | | and all the lines are busy: | | "This is a recording, all of | | the 911 emergency lines are busy | | now, if your call is an emergency | | please hang-up and dial the oper- | | ator." | | | [-]-[-]-[-]-[-]-[-]-[-]-[-]-[-]-[-]-[-]
