Special Dialing Codes
Non-Emergency Numbers
Boost Mobile supports many "non-emergency" numbers (such as #77, 311,...)
provided by local and state governments. These numbers are used to report
non-emergency incidents. If the situation includes imminent danger or loss of
life, you should dial 911.
Telecommunications Relay Service
Boost Mobile supports services for communicating with speech and/or hearing
impaired individuals. You can press 711 to reach a local
Telecommunications Relay Center. You will then be connected to your
destination number. Relay service works through a Communications Assistant
who reads messages typed into a TDD/TTY device by a speech or hearing
impaired individual to you. The Communications Assistant then types your
spoken messages to the hearing or speech impaired individual.
Telecommunications Relay Service is available 24 hours a day, seven days a
week, and every call is strictly confidential.
NOTE: Using 711 to reach Telecommunications Relay Service may not be available in
all areas.
Receiving a Phone Call
Incoming calls are indicated by a ring, vibration, or backlight illumination.
The screen displays:
•
the caller's name (if stored in your Phonebook), and the icon indicating
number type (work, home, mobile, etc.), or
•
the 10-digit phone number if Caller ID information is available.
Otherwise, the screen displays Incoming Call.
Press s or press B under YES to answer the call.
Sending Unanswered Calls to Voice Mail
Press e or press B under NO while your phone is ringing to transfer
incoming calls directly to Voice Mail. The y icon will appear on the
idle screen to remind you that you have a stored voice mail message.
