Another way to determine the area code is by the Postal Code. If the First letter of the Postal Code is M, the area code will remain 416. Postal Codes in the former 416 area starting with other letters will change to the 905 area code. The 416 / 905 area code split means that your dialing procedure will change, in some cases, but local calls will remain local calls. Here's the procedure you will follow: LOCAL CALLS... When placing a local call from 416 into the 905 area code... dial 905 + the 7-digit local number. When placing a local call from 905 into the 416 area code... dial 416 + the 7-digit local number. NOTE: 1 or 0 is not needed before the area code because this is not a long distance call. When placing a local call within the 416 or 905 area codes... dial the 7-digit local number you wish to reach. LOCAL CALLS THAT REQUIRE 10-DIGIT DIALING ARE NOT LONG DISTANCE CALLS. Therefore, no long distance charges apply for local 10-digit calls. LONG DISTANCE CALLS... Long distance calls will continue to require 1 or 0 (for operator-assisted calls) plus the area code and the 7-digit number. For example: If you place a long distance call from Hamilton to Oshawa, you will dial: 1 or 0 + 905 + 7 digits. If you place a long distance call from Niagara Falls to Toronto, you will dial: 1 or 0 + 416 + 7 digits.
