It rang twice, then I got a recorded message saying "my call could not be completed as dial, please check the number and dial again, or call 800-888-1800 for assistance. Two-Eee-Dee". The 800 number is for MCI customer service. My long distance carrier is MCI, obviously. I called them, and they said the "950-1682" number was invalid for area code 301.
