Social Friend Finder Chat Rooms are an exciting new feature of the Friend Finder service that allows Telenor subscribers to chat and make friends with other Telenor subscribers in public chat rooms (just like you would in a web based chat room!!) and to engage in one-2-one chatting.
To start simple send CHAT to 111.
Service Mechanics
Getting Started
- To get started simply send the command CHAT to the 111
- If you haven't done so already, you will be asked to create a profile (nick, age, gender and location) (this step is omitted if you have already created a profile)
- You will then be sent a list of rooms to chat in
Public Chatting in Chat Rooms
- To take part in a public chat, just select a room from the list of rooms sent to you in response to the CHAT command.
- Once in a room a you can undertake the following actions:
a. Chat with users in a room (Send a message to everyone in the room / receive messages)
b. List users in a room
c. Invite another user currently in the room for a private chat
d. Leave a chat room
Private Chatting with another User
To conduct a private chat with another user:
- You can conduct a search for users that match a certain criteria e.g. Islamabad based females of a certain age.
- Enter a chat room and view list of people in the room
In both cases, you will be sent a list of nicks (that match your search criteria if you conducted a search, or are the nicks of people currently in the room). You can then invite a particular nick / user to start a private chat.
Searching Profiles
To find users that match certain criteria:
- Send SEARCH to 111
- The service will ask you to select a search option
- Respond with the search option of your choice
- The service will respond with a list of user nicks and profiles that match your search criteria
- You may filter the returned nicks using the FILTER command
Once you have received the search results, you may filter the results according to some other criteria by replying with "filter".
You will receive a message with options to filter down search with nick, age, and gender, Select the desired option to get results matching that criteria.
