Toll Free Transfers Simplified in 6 sentences
1. Any toll free number can be transferred to and serviced by any toll free service within the US or Canada by filling out a Responsible Organization Change Form (Resporg form) and does NOT need to be carried by the company that provides the local line.
2. Along with the resporg form you get from the new company, you just send in the Toll Free Birth Certificate™ we email with the toll free manual after the activation if the phone company requests a phone bill as the proof of ownership.
3. The customer information is pretty easy since that’s just your info and the only other information that probably need to fill out the transfer form is our phone company name Resporg.com and the ID code is QZA01 and you can add our resporg fax number 800-FAX-0095
4. Unfortunately, when trying to follow up on a transfer request, most phone companies tend to say that a number was rejected or something along those lines simply because it hasn’t gone through, as their standard response, regardless of whether it’s been sent all the way through to the releasing company or not.
5. The quickest companies that we work with get the numbers transferred and set up in two days or so, but most phone companies take at least a week to two weeks and you can’t assume that it will be done simply because you sent them the paperwork.
6. Most phone companies will reject a transfer request if the slightest thing doesn’t match because they don’t want to give up customers, but we are the exact opposite and much more lenient and we usually release toll free numbers the same day we get the request, much faster than anyone else in the industry.

I’m planning to sell an 800 number that I will activate on your site. Right now the number is in reserved status. I have a few questions regarding the selling process.
1. How to do it if the number is activated with your company?
2. How much time does it usually take to transfer the number to the buyer?
3. Can you give me any tip how to deal with the transaction? Should I sign a contract? Do you have by chance a sample of the contract that is appropriate for transaction like this?
I’m not a new client. I’ve already purchased a backordered 888 number in 2007 ($595) and just 2 days ago I ordered a private investigator from your site.
Thank you,
Greg

Hi Greg,
The transfer process is pretty simple. You just get a transfer form, authorizing the new company want to take over the number. They will send it to us and we’ll release the number to the new phone company. And because you had it active before transferring it there they can’t say they got it for you as part of their service, essentially holding you hostage once you advertise your number.
We release them the same day we get the request but most companies take a few days to send us the request. Overall it can take from two days to two weeks. But we activate the number right away, often within seconds and give you free temporary service for the first 30 days or 100 minutes. So you’re in business right away, we help you transfer it wherever you want to use it.
We’re working on a provider section but it’s not ready yet. I don’t think there’s any sample contract, but getting your number from us is good insurance so they can’t hold you hostage if that helps. You won’t be stuck with whatever company you pick. That’s what keeps them honest.

If I need a block of 800 (not 888 or 877, but 800) numbers and I want to Resporg them immediately could you handle this? And if so what would the fees be?

Hi Matt,
That’s the whole idea of our service. We’re the only phone company that wants to get rid of our customers as fast as possible. http://www.TollFreeNumbers.com/push But seriously, we don’t sell the ongoing service. We get numbers for customers and give them free temporary service and then help them transfer the number to whatever company they want for the ongoing service.
We release numbers faster than anyone else in the 800 number business, processing Resporgs within hours of receiving them and we’re also the only one that emails the customer to let them know their number has been released too.
We still have some Random ‘800’ numbers available. http://www.TollFreeNumbers.com/random800 The supply is definitely limited and we’ve had some trouble keeping up at times so if you need them you should probably get them now. They are $79 instead of $49 for regular activations http://www.tollfreenumbers.com/blogs/price/random-800-numbers-are-79.html since they’re harder to get than regular available numbers, but we’re still selling them as long as we have any.

Will my existing landline carrier charge me an additional line or for “using” the toll free number if I must transfer it to them?
Do I need to transfer to my landline carrier if I plan to forward it to a voip service?
