    We stood by our last trip, called the number and watched as mostly kids would answer...it was so funny, as their parents or older siblings would say, there's no one really on there....and it was us !! It was fun !!

    I always had fun with the phones.

    Last time I put on a Brit accent and asked the guy who answered if they still were selling Jammie Dodgers at the tea shop. He tried to help by asking someone nearby before letting me know that I had in fact reached a payphone and not the tea shop.
    "Have I got a payphone here, sir? Bless me, my apologies!" Wished him good day and watched as he hung up the phone and started laughing.

    As of one month ago all three were working. We called them while in the rose and crown pub.

    My 11 year old daughter and I had a blast calling these when we were there in December. One time she asked a guy "Is this the Crusty Crab?" and he answered "No, this is Patrick"! (You have to know Spongebob to get this.) She thought that was hilarious!!

    It makes me sad. My friend and I get together, and call the phones to talk to the different people that answer. We typically ask some sort of Disney trivia. Or just ask how their trip to Disney is. I wish they would work

    We were just there and tried (& confirmed the numbers on the phone are correct). It did the recording "we're sorry, your call was unable to be completed as dialed. Please try again"

    The UK phones no longer seem to work, however, the phone booth in the Canada Pavilion still does! Called it a couple times yesterday and it definitely worked! Had some fun conversations with a few different people! The number for that one is 407-827-9884.
