Summary

[edit]
Description

On this day in 1927 the first transatlantic phone call was made. Back then no one had any idea just how popular phone calls would become

Today our Contact Centre is staffed 24/7 and takes nearly 700,000 emergency calls a year, only five per cent of which are a genuine emergency.

So if you need to call us but there's no immediate threat to life and the crime you are calling about is not currently in progress then please dial 101. You will still get a response from us and you will be helping to keep 999 free for genuine emergencies.

To have a go at grading calls they way we do in our Contact Centre take our challenge by visiting www.west-midlands.police.uk/about-us/lettersofthelaw/ and click on ‘E’ for ‘Emergencies’.
