Operator Verification/ Interrupt Service Charges

A charge will apply each time an operator is requested to verify a called line on which there is voice communication. Charges will not apply for verification on lines or numbers assigned to emergency agencies. A charge will apply each time an operator is requested to interrupt a conversation that is in progress on the called line. If, on the same request, the operator both verifies and interrupts service, only the interrupt charge will apply.

If you can’t find a phone number, local or national directory assistance may be your answer. With one sho call you can obtain any listing in the local area or across the nation, even if you don’t know the area code. If you can’t use a telephone directory on a continuous basis because of a handicap, you might be exempt from the charge. For information regarding exemptions or questions on your bill, call our business office. We’ll gladly help.

There is an additional charge for calls requiring operator assistance. These calls are more expensive than calls dialed directly from your home or office. • Collect Calls Dial 0 + area code + the number and tell the operator you are making a collect call. The operator will hang up when someone at the number you’ve called accepts the charges. • Calls Charged To A Third Number Dial 0 + area code + the number and tell the operator you want to charge your call to a third number. If you’re call ing from a public phone, the operator will call the third number to make sure the charges will be accepted. The call won’t go through if the operator can’t get approval. • Person-To-Person Calls Dial 0 + area code + the number and tell the operator you’re making a person-to-person call to a specific person. The operator will hang up and charge you for the call only when that specific person answers. You can place a person-to-person call when you call collect or charge your call to a third number. If You Want To Know How Much Your Call Costs Dial 0 + area code + the long distance number and tell the operator you want “time and charges.” When you finish the call, the computer voice will return to the line to tell you what you’ll be charged.
