An AT&T Universal card does NOT have a real phone number embossed on
it.  Instead, it has a 10-digit made-up 'Calling Card number' that is
not a phone number and does NOT have the four-digit code at the end of
it.  (My card has 508-096-xxxx which is unlikely to ever become a real
phone number.)  The user of the AT&T Universal card must remember the
four-digit code him/herself.
