Press release from the City of Millbrae:
10/29/2021 4:24 PM
Are you having trouble getting your calls to go through? As of October 24, 2021, all local calls made by cell phone or landline in area code 650 require 10-Digit dialing. Three-digit dialing such as 9-1-1 remains the same. The change is in preparation for using 9-8-8 on the abbreviated dialing code for the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline that will be active as of July 16, 2022.
The FCC last year established 9-8-8 as an easy-to-remember three-digit number for individuals seeking help from the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline. Currently, callers can reach the 24/7 national hotline by phoning the 10-digit number: 1-800-273-8255 (TALK).
