Charges For Directory Assistance

PSC customers will be charged for directory assistance calls except those made from coin phones or hospitals. Visually and physically disabled persons should contact their local telephone office to obtain an exemption status from directory assistance charges. When Direct Distance Dialing (DDD), you can dial your own station-to-station long distance calls. To make Direct Distance Dialing possible, the nation has been divided into more than 120 geographic areas. Each area has its own three-digit “Area Code” (see map on page 26).

0 + Area Code + Number (If using touch tone) – wait for special tone, then dial Calling Card Number.
