Directories
For decades, most of the United States and Canada has used 411 as the
telephone number for local directory assistance.
One notable
exception is the Pacific Northwest, which used 1-1-3 until the mid-1980s. Up
until the early 1980s, 411 calls used to be free.
In
recent years, 411 has also been used for
long distance directory assistance in most areas in the United States and
all of Canada. The traditional long distance directory assistance
number is 1-area code-555-1212.
A
reverse 11 is type a search that you
do using the Internet to find out who it is that just called you. By typing
the phone number into a specialized search engine you can gather all kinds
of information about the owner, which is collected from a wide variety of
public documents. Where

411 is also commonly referred to as "DA" - "Directory Assistance" or
"Information".
Approximately 6 billion calls are made to 411 within the United States each
year.
Directory assistance or directory enquiries is a phone service
used to find out a specific telephone number and / or address of a residence
or business.
In the North American Numbering Plan (covering Canada and the United
States), directory assistance may be contacted by dialing 4-1-1 (one of the
N11 codes) or to get a listing in a remote or non-local area code, directory
assistance is available at 1-area code-555-1212.
However, a 411 landline call will provide local listings as well as
nationwide listings and sometimes international listings.
Most telephone companies permit up to two listings per 411 call. All
wireless carriers offer nationwide listings with 411, and some offer
additional Enhanced Directory Assistance services.
411 land line service is generally provided
by a local telephone company. Since deregulation, the price of using 411 has
increased to an average of $1.25 USD in the U.S., compared to $0.50 CAD in
most of Canada.
