The Service-public.fr interministerial call center (CAI) offers an administrative information service by telephone, Allo Service Public 3939.

The CAI handled 138,646 calls in 2020. The service was stopped during the first containment and the resumption of activity was progressive. In order to ensure continuity of the service provided, a new organization was set up with adapted schedules, allowing the continuation of all the activities devolved to the service.

According to Nadège Cressonnier, head of the Metz CAI, " while at the beginning of the period, questions were mainly centered on travel certificates, we have noted a diversification of topics in connection with the evolution of issues related to Covid-19: from the implementation of partial activity, we have moved on to questions about remuneration during a period of partial unemployment, to questions about moving and those related to real estate purchase projects that were hindered by confinement. During vacations and weekends, we saw an increase in questions about childcare.
