Why do we now have to dial the area code on local calls? We have always been able to dial local calls without the area code, but in the last month that has changed and now we have to dial the area code with the local number?????

Hello @Coldwell Banker Ozark Real Estate Company, are you dialing through the app or deskphone?

Same question. I'm using a desktop phone.

Here's the reason for this concern. The FCC added more locations to 10 digit dialing.

That stinks...And I'm not in an area code that is supposed to be affected according to that article.
