Customer Service Record
The customer service record (CSR) includes the person’s or company’s name, postal code, and street address. This information is entered when the phone number is added to the account. If this address needs to be changed, please contact Customer Support.
E911 Record
An E911 address allows emergency services to determine the location of each phone or device in case they need to call 911. The registered address must be the physical address where the device is located and include any additional information (such as a suite, apartment, building, etc.) necessary to identify the caller's location.
If the E911 address is the same as the CSR, check the Same as CSR Record box. If not, uncheck the box and enter the correct information in the fields below. When you’re done, click [Save]. It may take several hours for the changes to take effect.
