Thanks! When I called about something else, I got incorrect information from a
customer service rep about disability services (not surprising).

I talked to verizon customer service and the person said that they did not have
an accessibility (special needs) department and that they did not give an
exemption for paying for directory assistance calls. The person said to call
1800-411 to get free information. But she had it wrong. The call would not go
through. As of now, I use free 411 1800-3733411. Actually it is the word free
and then 411. At&T has free directory assistance with proof of blindness the
last time I knew when I was a customer a couple of years ago.

Good morning, Candy girl,
With Verizon and AT&T, we have free directory assistance. I think we
submitted signatures from our docs or maybe our rehab counselors and they
granted us this very integral privilege. Also, there's 800-FREE411, a service
that as far as I know, works from any phone for FREE!
Good luck!

Is there a free way of looking up a phone number online? What about
over the phone? I know there used to be a few free services, but now
they seem to have been either discontinued or require payment. Thank
you, Candy Lien
