user_ukwza0 A number you are calling may say it's outside your calling area if it is classified as a Local-1 call in the Local Calling Area Tool (LCAT), which means it incurs a charge of $0.05 per minute. Local calling areas are determined by the incumbent Local Exchange Carrier (LEC), and if the number is not within your designated local calling area, it will be treated as a long-distance or toll call. You can check the local calling area using the LCAT tool or by consulting your yellow or white pages for a map of local calling areas .
