Is using cell phone in another area code for local call a long distance call?
Most cell phone plans however do not differentiate between long distance and local calls on your plans. You are just given a certain number of minutes per month to use for any calls (not within your network, or fave five, etc.) However, this does mean that if you have a New Orleans area code for your cell phone, no matter where you are in the states, someone from New Orleans can call you and it will be a local call. It is all based upon the area code of your cell phone, and not the physical location from where you are making/receiving the call.
