Introduces what you can do in an emergency with 050 number services such as 050 plus and apps for emergencies.
"050 plus" service provided by NTT Communications. I also love it.
This is an Internet phone service (IP phone) that allows you to have a phone number starting with 050 and make calls from any device, from smartphones, tablets, and computers.
What makes me happy is that you can call landlines for 8.64 yen per 3 minutes (including tax, the same applies below) (*17.28 yen/min for mobile phones and PHS).
As a result, when calling a landline, "050 plus" is used to save call charges.
Also, one of the big points is that even if you have a cheap SIM without a voice call contract, you can make calls with the 050 number by subscribing to "050 plus".
However, there are phone numbers that cannot be called to IP phone services such as "050 plus".
It is an emergency call (110, 118, 119) or a three-digit number (117 hours, 177 weather forecast, etc.). It's too early to give up if you can't call the police or fire department with the 050 number. It's true that you can't make a phone call, but you can keep the damage to a minimum in case of emergency.
The first thing I want you to do with your smartphone is to install a countermeasure application. By installing the app, you will be able to take measures to some extent when you say yes.
◆Emergency call navigation (free)
App Store / Google Play
This is an app that allows you to search for the nearest police station with a 050 number smartphone that cannot call 110 or 119. Using the GPS function of the smartphone, the nearest police station is displayed on the map, and directions are provided using the telephone contact and the navigation function.
In addition, you can also contact the general consultation phone number of each prefectural police when you want to consult even if it is not an emergency. Although it is not compatible with fire departments (ambulances), you will be able to call the police smoothly by inserting this card.
Nationwide hospital search for Pocket Medica (free)
AppStore (web version only) / Google Play
An application that allows you to search for the nearest hospital and hospitals all over the country. In addition to medical departments, you can also check phone numbers, route searches, and reception hours, so you can respond when you are sick on the go. In addition to searching within a 5km radius, you can also search by specific area or medical department, so you can search efficiently. For example, if the destination is decided in advance on a trip or business trip, you can also use it to check the hospital in that place.
It is also helpful to ask for help from acquaintances and family members after telling them in advance that you cannot make an emergency call. is.For example, if you are involved in an accident or disaster, you can use LINE or Facebook Messenger to report it on behalf of your family or acquaintances.
Since you can notify the other party of your location information on LINE, etc., it would be a good idea to give that information as well.
Before giving up on the fact that you can't make an emergency call with a 050 number service such as 050 plus, by all means taking measures and preparing for emergencies, you can cover your weaknesses to some extent. Please try!
