"star 69" (*69)
Explanation:
I believe this is the equivalent of the "star 69" service in the US (I'm pretty sure each country has its own equivalent), which allows the user to dial *-6-9 to redial the last number that called that user's phone or to hear a recording that says that number.

Explanation:
I believe you should leave it as it is.
You can give a translation in brackets (Service 400), but is not necessary.
