I happen to live within an area code where local call dialing within the area code requires only the 7 digits of the phone number. No area code required.
But today I got an email from my phone service provider telling me that starting late next month I will have to dial 1+ the 10 digits for local calls. That is, I will have to dial 1+area code+7-digit phone number for calls within my area code.
This will cause a minor headache because my land line's speed dialing has only the 7-digits for local calls. For my cell phone, I will have to add the "1" to the local phone numbers.
Do any of you live in area codes which did not require 10-digit dialing but will soon have it in place?
