Making Calls While You Wait for Registration Completion

If you already have applied and are waiting for services to begin, please remember to first dial the telephone company's access code when you want to use the telephone company/companies that you selected in your application. This dialing procedure is only necessary until your MYLINE services start. Thank you for your cooperation.

You can keep on using the phone and other equipment you currently use.

  • Watch out for scams! Operators of scams defraud people. They try to sell new phones by telling you that you can no longer use your current phones, ACR, and adapters because of the introduction of these services.

If you use MYLINE...

Then ACR will have priority in selecting the telephone company over your registered telephone company.


Calls made via MYLINE automatically give priority to telephone company selection
by ACR and similar functions.
