Speed Calling service allows telephone subscribers to assign one or two digit speed calling codes, by dialing a change speed calling list access code, a feature code, and a new telephone number. Thereafter, the subscribers need only use the assigned speed code to reach the desired party rather than dial the long phone number. This service became commonplace in the 1970s with the spread of Stored Program Control exchanges capable of implementing the required databases.
