Re: Cheapest landline phone service providers in Ottawa?

Yes you can dial 911 from a dry loop line, and yes 911 will be able to see you're address.

I just tried this at my friend place. 911 didn't work from the dry loop. I guess this is a myth.

It is a myth. I didn't even used to have a dial tone on my dry loop.

So why would you call 911 to try it out. It it had gone through you could potentially have delayed someone from a legitimate call to 911.

Did you ever think of calling Bell to see if it would work first?

I know it's great to save a dime here and there, but come on guys... think before you do things!
