Until 25 May 2013 (2013-05-25), you can dial local calls in Saskatoon, and throughout Saskatchewan's area code 306, by dialing only the 7-digit number, although beginning in late February you may get a nagging reminder message suggesting that you dial the area code and number before the call completes as normal.

Beginning 25 May 2013, you will have to dial the area code and number (for example, 306-555-0123) for all local calls within, to, or from any part of Saskatchewan. That is in preparation for the introduction of the new overlay area code 639. The 639 area code will serve the same geographic area as the existing 306 area code; namely, the entire province.

For toll calls, continue to dial 1 + area + number.

When calling a different state do you dial your area code or the other states?

The point of a phone number is that it uniquely identifies the phone you wish to call. When you dial an area code, you are asking the system to connect you to that area code. So, you would dial the area code of the location you are calling TO.


Why if calling from a 314 area would need to dial 314 area code?

In areas with "toll alerting" (you must dial 1+ for all toll calls), you must dial 1+area+number even if the area code is the same. Many cell phones require you to dial the area code and number to prevent confusion with other nearby area codes. In overlay areas, you must always dial the area code. In some overlay areas, you can dial just the area+number for local calls; in others, you must dial 1+area+number for all calls, local or toll.

Area code 408 calling area code 661. I tried calling my friend that has an area code 661 and mine is 408 and it dialed someone else I tried again and the same result. Do I need to put stuff before?

To dial a number in area code 661 from a landline in area code 408, you should dial 1-661 and then the 7-digit local number. On most cellphones, you can dial just 661 and then the 7-digit local number. Maybe your friend moved or just has a different # now.
