  • AT&T Operator and Directory Assistance is ending [telecom]

    From Bill Horne@21:1/5 to All on Sun Nov 13 18:40:36 2022
    Operator and Directory Assistance is ending

    On or after January 1, 2023, you won't be able to use these services
    on AT&T Phones.

    Operator and Directory Assistance won't be available on AT&T Phone(sm) (formerly U-verse(r) Voice) starting on or after January 1, 2023.
    Because of this, you won't be able to dial 411 on AT&T Phone(sm) to
    request phone numbers or addresses. Also, when placing calls, you'll
    need to dial phone numbers directly as Operator Assistance won't be
    available.

    It seems that this is only for digital/VoIP phones? Presumably the same
    is not true for my AT&T POTS line (not that I ever dial the operator or
    411). I wonder if 411 is also being disabled on mobile phones?
