OP (Thanks Anna)
You should all know I usually work by my Babylon dictionary (which I've been using for the past 5 years, nowadays much less frequently though), thereby "slang" is written on brackets upon the nominal definition of "phone" (and not the verbal ones). Babylon, as it seems, uses "slang" for colloquialism too. But of course the fiddling inaccuracies of dictionaries are always debatable... although just so you know, the definition I get there for slang is "n. informal words or phrases, colloquial language..." etc.
So if you wish to continue nitpicking, feel free to contact Babylon... don't kill the messenger.
