New 1411 Directory Assistance Introduced in Florida
In June General Telephone launched 1411 as the new Directory Assistance number for Sarasota and Bradenton. Manager Wention Stewart notes improved call processing but reports some customers still dial the old repair number, tying up lines. The change, advertised in the directory and media, lets automatic caller ID reduce the need for the operator to record numbers. Six free calls per billing cycle, then 15 cents each within 813.
