NEW!!! 10-digit Phone Numbers for Deaf Consumers
The FCC in its order FCC-08-275A1 dated December 19, 2008 require the relay user to understand and agree to the following.
“To verify the accuracy of initial registration information and to help ensure that VRS and IP Relay are used only for their intended purpose, we conclude that Internet-based TRS providers must institute procedures to verify the accuracy of registration information, including the consumer’s name and mailing address, before issuing the consumer a ten-digit telephone number. In addition, to ensure that registered users are aware of the eligibility limitations set forth above, the verification procedures must include a self certification component requiring consumers to verify that they have a medically recognized hearing or speech disability necessitating their use of TRS.”
