No, you won't be charged for receiving a call unless it is a "collect" (reverse charges) call. In the US and Canada and a few other countries, if you receive a call on a mobile phone (cell phone), you will pay for the airtime, but not for any long distance charges.

In general, you don't get charged for incoming calls (unless you're on a cellphone, in which case you pay the same no matter where the call comes from).

Is area code 206 to 253 long distance?

It depends on where in area code 206, where in area code 253, what phone company you use, and what calling plan you signed up for. However, at least some calls from area code 206 (Seattle, WA) to area code 253 (Tacoma, WA) are local.


Will someone still call if the area code changed automatically and they use the old one?

When an area code splits, some of the telephone numbers change to the new area code. There is a period of permissive dialing in which calls placed using either the old or new area code will complete. After permissive dialing ends, calls placed using the old area code will receive a recorded message instructing the caller to redial using the new area code. When that recording is disconnected, calls made using the old area code will fail, or will reach a wrong number.

What area codes are local calls from area code 909?

The local calling area depends on where you are in area code 909. Traditionally, the local calling area in California is anything within 12 miles (measured from "rate center" to "rate center"). Note that there is no correlation between "in the same area code" and "local call." There may be calls that are billed as local, even though they are in a different area code, and there may be calls that are toll, even though they're in the same area code.
