- The 10xxx+ 1 700 555.4141 seems to work for some of the codes, but
- certain carriers might not bother with such an announcement. I don't
- think there's even a guarantee that they won't try to soak a huge
- 900-style message charge from 700 555.4141 (700 is used by some
- carriers for special premium services such as conference calling, or
- 900-style numbers).
-
- The official 10xxx and 950.xxxx assignments may be found in the
- Bellcore's Telephone Area Code Directory, which I purchased last year
- for USD$30 (plus any incidental charges). Not only are various places
- listed with their area codes, but an appendix contains the Carrier
- Identification Codes (CIC) which are at the heart of 10xxx and
- 950.xxxx numbers. Even the various Domino Pizza numbers (950.1430 is
- one of them) are listed.
