How to Register
- To apply for the MYLINE service, please contact your telephone company.
- Upon completion of your MYLINE registration, one copy of a pamphlet titled “Guide to MYLINE Registration” will be mailed to you at the billing address held by NTT East or NTT West per application. Please note that even if you register two or more telephone numbers in one application, the pamphlet will be mailed to one single billing address. Therefore, if you want a pamphlet to be mailed to the billing address of each telephone number, please submit a separate application for registration of each telephone number. Also, please note that it may take some time for the pamphlet to reach you.
- Depending on the policy of your telephone company, you may be required to conclude a separate call service contract with the telephone company in order to be eligible for the MYLINE service. For details, please inquire at your telephone company.
What if you haven't registered?
- When users who have not applied for MYLINE registration and customers whose registration has not yet been completed dial without prefixing the telephone company's access code, their local calls and in-prefecture long-distance calls (long-distance calls within the same prefecture) are carried via NTT East or NTT West, and their out-of-prefecture long-distance calls (long-distance calls to different prefectures) are carried via NTT Communications.
- If you use ACR, you are connected to the telephone company as usual.
- If you do not use ACR, your local calls and in-prefecture long-distance are carried via NTT East or NTT West, and your out-of-prefecture long-distance calls are carried via NTT Communications.
- If you're making an international call but haven't registered, you'll have to dial the telephone company's access code.
Customers have a choice in four categories.
Choose and register one telephone company in each of the four categories.
(1) Local call (2) In-prefecture long-distance
(3) Out-of-prefecture long-distance (4) International
Once you've completed the registration procedure and service starts, you'll be able to make calls via those telephone companies without the bother of dialing an access code. The table has a list of the telephone companies that you can register.
