What are the numbers that you dial into the land line to get the info in English? I cannot find them to get my phone sorted from Spanish to English.

Are you referring to the Movistar answering service (which now costs 20 cents plus IVA)? If so:

I don't know what the Movistar service is, but I have just found the change of language numbers on the answerphone service on line, so hopefully it is now sorted. Thanks for getting back to me though.

I'm puzzled. Are you talking about a phone with an answering machine built in? If so, what sort is it - a Domo?

The numbers I used to change the phone languages are....1-4-0000-3-1-1

Don't know if it will work for anyone else, but it got our phone from Spanish to English. Just pick up the phone and wait till the message on line pauses and put the number in, then do the same again and put a different number in,

Maybe if it doesn't work the info will be somewhere on line. Sorry if it is confusing.

Those numbers are the ones I gave in my guide, and they relate to the Movistar online answering service.

If anyone has an old Telefonica Domo phone with the answering machine built in, then it's a different system.
