855 and 844 Area codes

The date of release of the new 855 and 844 toll free area codes remains uncertain. When these area codes are made available, millions of new toll free combinations will be up for grabs. Until then, don't be fooled that you can reserve a specific 855 now and have an absolute guarantee that you will get it. Once those new numbers are released, quality, reliable toll free providers like Tollfreenumber.ORG can help subscribers get the numbers they want. But some providers are making false promises now that are misleading subscribers into thinking they have a lock on yet-to-be-released numbers.

When 800 numbers began running low in the mid-1990s, the 888 and 877 numbers were released to ease the burden. When those supplies started running dry, 866 was launched. Today, the 855 and 844 pre-fixes are being held in reserve by the Federal Communications Commission. When supplies of all the remaining 800, 888, 877, and 866 numbers become scarce, the FCC will launch 855 numbers to address the problem.

There were reports in the fall of 2000 that the 855 numbers were to be released on the heels of the 866 pre-fixes. But it never happened. With more than two-thirds of the available toll free numbers taken, the FCC has yet to announce exactly when it will launch 855 and 844 numbers. Some insiders anticipate that the 855 numbers could be released within the next couple of years.
