Are there costs for ten-digit numbering and 911 emergency call handling?
A. At this time there is no charge to the VRS or IP user. Telephone users typically pay for the following: • the costs of getting ten-digit numbers; • the costs of getting and using toll-free numbers; • and charges that state or local governments may impose for enhanced 911 services. To protect consumers, any VRS or IP Relay provider that wants to charge these or other numbering-related costs to VRS or IP Relay users must first get FCC approval.
