What phone services will not change due to a new area code?
A. The following will not change with the introduction of a new area code: • Local calling areas (geographic areas within which all calls are local and do not require long-distance calling). Some local calls may require 10-digit dialing when calling to a different area code. If your area is affected by 10-digit local dialing, you will be notified in advance by your local telecommunications company. • Your seven-digit telephone number. • Emergency calls to 911. • Calls to 500, 700, 800, 877, 888, 900 and 950 numbers. • Directory assistance may be handled differently by state. Please check the state-specific section for details or call your telecommunications provider.
