New Area Codes = New way to Dial
New areas codes to be added in Connecticut. The 475 area code will be added later this year to the area served by 203 and the 959 area code will be added at a future date to the area served by 860.
What Will be the New Dialing Procedure?
To complete local calls, the new dialing procedure requires callers to dial area code + telephone number. This means that all local calls in Connecticut that are currently dialed with seven digits will need to be dialed using area code + telephone number.
Beginning November 14, 2009, you must use the new dialing procedure for all local calls in Connecticut. If you do not use the new dialing procedure, your call will not be completed, and a recording will instruct you to hang up and dial again.
Any preprogrammed phone numbers will need to be changed.
