What is a Direct VP number and why would I want one?
Direct VP numbers are toll-free numbers, which means that your hearing contacts will not be charged for the calls that they make to your Direct VP number, even if they are calling from outside your local calling area. Local 10-digit numbers indicate the geographic location, or “area code,” in which you live or work. Calls to a local 10-digit number from hearing callers who are outside your local calling area may cause the hearing caller to incur long distance charges.
