How does the new Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) phone service work with the emergency 9-1-1 service?
There are several service providers who now offer Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) service to their customers. This service is attractive to people because they can now have voice service using their Internet Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) connection, and no longer need a dedicated telephone line to make phone calls. They also are provided with long distance service at no charge. Check with your service provider to determine if they have a correct address for you and whether you will be connected to the correct Dispatch Center.
