Residence Phone Extension
When do we usually find out our phone extension for residence? Cause I think I found mine by trying to sign up for the long distance program. :p

It's different this year. You'll find out when you move in-- just like I did. I'm so glad to be officially moved into my room and have my own phone and all. So pumped.

No, extensions are 5 digit numbers. Just like the ones you use to reach a certain department/person in McMaster.

do u have to pay any fees if u register?
i clicked "register for service" and im not sure if thats gonna charge me :S
also, if i didnt sign up for the long distance plan, can i still use the phone in my room to receive calls from potential employers from hamilton?
i was only hoping to use the rez phone to receive those calls instead of having hamilton people call my cellphone and incur long distance charges ..

and it says the wrong building on my log in page O_O
