New Area Code Could Cause Call Problems Locally Starting in August
It is true, a new area code is going in place within the Capital Region very soon. Our beautiful 518 is now becoming the 518/838. The one thing I hadn't even thought of though is how this will affect any phone call we now make locally.
What’s the New Area Code Coming to the Capital Region In Sept?
Earlier this year it was announced we would be getting a new area code to join the 518. Now we know what it is and when it goes into use.
