If you are unsure if your phone number is a long distance call from the campus you can verify that by visiting the local calling guide. In the NPA fields you will need to enter the area code of the phone number you are forwarding from and to. For example 206 for any phone on campus. Examples of other area codes 425, 253, 360 etc. For the NXX fields you will need to enter the phone numbers prefix or the next 3-digits of the phone number. For example 296 which is widely used across campus. Once all the relevant information has been entered press the submit button. The results will show a Y or N in the “Local Call” box denoting if the call is local or not. |
