however, you should check with your operator to determine if this will

Q: I sometimes get a busy signal, is this normal?

A: Due to the cost of phonelines, I can't currently afford to add
additional lines to handle heavy call-volume. Enough donations
may change this and allow for additional lines and equipment.

Q: 468-TIME is not working, how can I report an outage?

A: you can report it by emailing 468time@furmannet.net or
via the 468-TIME Facebook page.

Q: Who are you?

A: 468-TIME is Cary, North Carolina's telephone time number.
I Matthew Furman am the operator of the line and I have been a
Cary resident since late-2007. You may read more about me
on my personal website www.furmannet.net

Q: Why did you create 468-TIME?

A: Because I am a telephone hobbyist and Cary did not have a
telephone time number, so I made one.

Q: Who is the voice on your telephone time line?

A: It's me! Matthew Furman, the operator of the line.

Q: Do you really sit there all day and say the time on every call?

A: Umm. No. It's a recording.

Q: Sometimes I call 468-TIME, but the time info is missing,
why does this happen?

A: It means I have temporarily lost my Internet connection.
My time equipment uses an Internet server to get it's info.
Try calling again in a few minutes and it should be working.
If this issue lasts for more than 10 minutes, contact me using the
email or Facebook link above. I do have a Dial-up account
I use when my broadband is not working. Thanks AOL!
You can check the equipment online status here.

Please help support 468-TIME with a donation. Phone lines are not cheap!
I will keep this service running for as long as I can possibly afford to do so.
Donations no matter how small are VERY HELPFUL!!!
