how do long distance and local calling work with my wireless phone?
any call you make within your home service area is considered a local call. if you call outside your home service area, it’s considered long distance. the difference with wireless is that your local area changes when you change locations. for example, if you are traveling in seattle with your san francisco-based phone, any call you make to a local seattle number is considered a local call. however, if you make a call to san francisco from seattle, it is considered long distance, even though your service is based in san francisco.
