Directory assistance may be handled differently by state. Please check the state-specific section for details or call your telecommunications provider. If you will have a new area code, notify the people who call you. Make plans to change your area code on things such as personal stationery and checks before the mandatory dialing date. Future editions of the Qwest Dex telephone directories will reflect the new area code.
Individual customers are responsible for any changes to listings appearing in other directories.
As a direct result of some new area codes being added, ten-digit dialing may become necessary for local phone calls in select areas. Customers affected by this dialing change will be notified by their local telephone provider. If Qwest is your provider and you experience difficulty calling a new area code after the transition dialing start date, call Qwest Repair to report the problem. As a result, these new area codes may not be recognizable by some business telephone equipment. You may test your telephone equipment to determine if it recognizes the specific area code number and formats by calling a test number that appears in each state-specific section.
