Barnes your Bell manager You may be aware thai Bell Canada is initiating directory assistance charging in the Georgetown exchange area starting November 1974 I thought it might be helpful to review the plan and to stress that no one need ever incur an unnecessary charge Most people use Directory Assistance 411 only as a last resort when the phone number they need is not yet listed in their directory These necessary requests will continue to be free lts the unnecessary calls we want to dis courage to ensure reliable service for those really need it Thats why beginning November 1974 there will be a cent charge for each phone number provided by a directory assistance operator when the requested number is listed m your phone book Every month the first three such requests made from yourresidence phone will be free After that the charge will apply Necessary calls for numbers not yet listed in your directory will still be free And whether the number is listed or not there will be no charge for anyone who has a handicap that makes it difficult to use a directory or for persons years or over If you qualify for an exemption just call your Bell Canada business office and ask for a special exemption form Also free are emergency calls from pay phones hotel motel and hospital rooms In closing Id just like to repeat that you can avoid unnecessary directory assis tance charges by looking in the book before 1 The number vou need is probably listed In 1973 our directory assistance operators handled more than million callsmore than 70 per cent of them were for numbers already listed in the phone book Its also a good idea to keep emergency and frequently called numbers uptodate in the space provided in the introductory pages of your directory Bell Canada
