You don't enter area codes with the pound key on the keyboard. Doing so will cause your call to fail.
You can use the pound key on the telephone keypad on a landline to signal the telephone switch that you have dialed the complete number and the switch should not wait to see if more digits are coming. On a call within North America, where the numbers are all of a fixed length, this has little or no effect, but on an international call where the length of the number can vary, it may save several seconds.
There are also some optional services from the telephone company that may use the pound key on the telephone keypad.
