299 is an intercom. Once dialed: Take a deep breath and begin speaking. Speak slowly and clearly, repeating message 3 times. You may or may not hear voice/noise in the receiver. Do not expect anyone to return communication. Think of it like the overhead page at a supermarket check-out where tellers use the phone as a speaker.

In An Emergency: Do NOT dial “O”

DO NOT call “O”. Calls to these numbers are stacked in a queue, which may result in a critical delay of up to 2 minutes before an operator responds to your call. “O” is to be used for general information or paging service.
