    My friends were down there last month and texted me when they were near the booths. I called & they had their 5 yo daughter answer & she had a nice long talk with "Belle"

    I just put the number in my cell phone!

    Just because you're paranoid, doesn't mean they're NOT out to get you!

    My son just had a hilarious conversation with a lady from Ohio. She couldn't believe we were calling from North Carolina (we're here on vacation). They were having a lovely time. What a hoot! Thanks for the info.

    I was hoping DS wouldn't see this thread so that I could have some fun with him on our upcoming trip, but he spied it. I guess maybe I'll have to get DH to go "pose for a picture" while DS hides around the corner & calls him . . . A very fun hidden treasure!

    they thought it was hillarious someone was calling.

    DD#2 and I were hanging around watching DD#1 finish tennis practice yesterday. We decided to call while hanging around... DD#2 called, got a young boy (10ish) named Andrew. She then preceded to put on her best Cinderelly voice and began visiting and asking questions (have you been to my castle yet?) It was a hoot! The boy played along and said they would be around for four more days and he hoped to see her later on! Very fun! I would say that this could be a great way to cash in on someone elses trip to help tide us over till our next visit!

    This is so cool! I need to think of a good prank to pull on my wife in Sept. Maybe I'll text my sister to call the phone so it will ring while I get my wife to pose inside for a pic. hen she answers & someone asks for her she will be shocked.

    This is what I love about Disney!

    I just called and ask for Prince William too!

    In fact I did it two different times. It was so funny on my end, but the people who answered just seemed really confused.

Or, you can always play a trick on people who go to pose in the booths for a photo op!

    The number is 407-827-9863 and it's for the center booth. Good luck and report back here if you get an answer!

    Two other numbers you can try:

    407-827-9861
    407-827-9862

    ETA: Just tried and got someone on the 9863#! It's hilarious!
    We actually found this out last week, when were there. We didn't call anyone, but I did get a picture of DD in there.

    Okay, I'm almost embarrassed to tell you that my son called them today while we were there standing right in front of the phone booths!

    Hmmmmm, I have a friend there right now and I told her to call me when she gets to the phone booths and I would add a little magic to her kid's' day. I thought I'd try the numbers, we got them last September from a guest who was calling someone on the phones as a joke. Anyway, I get a loud beeping noise then silence when I call all three numbers. Anyone else have this problem?

    We called one night. It was so funny. The first time we called and ask to have fish and chips delivered and the guy said you have the wrong number. I said isn't this the phone booth near the Rose and Crown? He said yes, and I said would you mind going and ask them to deliver to PA. He hung up. We tried it again and the guy just hung up on us.
