Dialing in Connecticut

10 digit dialing coming to Connecticut

I don’t watch much network news so I am obviously a little in the dark when it comes to the changes about to happen as far as dialing in Connecticut. This news kind of snuck up on me. Let me simply cut to the chase: Local seven digit calls will soon need to be dialed using the area code. Bummer.

For all the information about our new dialing procedures, visit the CT Department of Public Utility Website where you can read about overlay area codes and the effective dates of the changes.

For those residents new to Connecticut, you might be interested to know that until 1996 we only had one area code. Fairfield and New Haven Counties were allowed to keep that 203 area code, while the rest of us changed to 860.
