Directory Assistance
Wyoming Relay Service will relay Directory Assistance (DA) calls (i.e. to 411) between relay users who are deaf, hard of hearing, deafblind, or speech disabled and the Local Exchange (LEC) DA operator. Once the caller makes the request, the Communications Assistant will contact the appropriate LEC DA operator. After obtaining the requested telephone number, the caller may choose to place the call through Wyoming Relay Service or dial it directly.
