In this case, the 780 code has been Overlayed with one of the following codes: 368, 587 or 825. New phone numbers in the Philomena area will be assigned with one of these codes: 780, 368, 587 or 825. As a result, placing a call in the Philomena area will require 10-digit dialing (where you enter both the area code and then the phone number).
