Measures to secure calls from those affected in the event of a large-scale disaster or traffic accident.
Offering public telephones free-of-charge
In order to avoid the possibility that public telephones may become inoperable due to full coin boxes or power failures that prevent using a card, calls from existing public telephones can be made free-of-charge if such measures are considered necessary.
- Note: When a card other than our telephone card (other company's cards) is used, the call will not be toll-free. For more information, please refer to the other card companies.
