Telecommunications Relay Service
Nextel supports services for communicating with
speech and/or hearing impaired individuals. You
can dial 711 to reach a local Telecommunications
Relay Center. You will then be connected to your
destination number. Relay service works through a
Communications Assistant who reads messages
typed into a TDD/TTY device by a speech or
hearing impaired individual to you. The
Communications Assistant then types your spoken
messages to the hearing or speech impaired
individual. Telecommunications Relay Service is
available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and
every call is strictly confidential.
Note: Using 711 to reach Telecommunications
Relay Service may not be available in all
areas.
