Mandatory 10-Digit Dialing Begins May 3rd

ALL CUSTOMERS WITH 702 AREA CODE MUST DIAL
AREA CODE + TELEPHONE NUMBER
FOR ALL LOCAL CALLS

702---

Beginning May 3, 2014, you must use the new dialing procedure for all local calls. If you do not use the new procedure, your call will not be completed, and a recording will instruct you to hang up and dial again. o complete local calls, the new dialing procedure requires callers to dial area code + telephone number. This means that all calls in the 702 area code that are currently dialed with seven digits will need to be dialed using area code + telephone number. This is known as the area code overlay.

The 702 area code generally covers all of Clark County and principally the greater Las Vegas area, serving communities such as:

• Boulder City

• Henderson

• Las Vegas

• Laughlin

• Mesquite

• Moapa Valley
