Telecommunications Relay Service
Boost Mobile 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, 7 days a week,
and every call is strictly confidential.
Note: Using 711 to reach Telecommunications
Relay Service may not be available in all
areas.
