Knowing About Toll Free Numbers

There are tens of millions of potential toll free numbers, each beginning with one of four area codes—888, 877, 866 or 855. And all these numbers fall within one of several categories. Below is a primer for understanding the basics of toll free phone service.

Available numbers: These are the phone numbers currently available for use on the SMS/800 database. These numbers have either never been used or have been retired back into the system. Providers like Tollfreenumber.ORG can secure a subscriber a number from the available pool of toll free numbers.

Retired or Disconnected Numbers: These are numbers that have been forfeited by their owners and are either waiting to be re-introduced to the database (called the aging process) or have already been returned for another subscriber to select and use.
