The ZERO misdial

toll free misdials of zero and O

How big of a misdial problem is associated with the ZERO instead of the letter “O”?

That isn’t usually much of a factor except in very high volume, easily monetized commercial situations. In other words, unless you get a huge number of calls for something that people can easily make money from, it really doesn’t matter much. The best example of it being a problem is 1-800 FLOWERS. It’s easy for any florist to take orders and just send them via FTD to anywhere, so with their high volume of calls, that was an issue.

However, for 99.8% of the customers getting toll free numbers, with O’s it’s not a problem or concern at all. The bottom line is NOT to bypass or even worry about using a vanity number with an O in it. I would only try to get the misdial zero option if it were a high volume of calls and something that a competitor could easily make money from. On the other hand, don’t forget to check the misdial versions of your competitors or if you’re a distributor of a product check the main company’s number for misdials. Many people make a lot more money than you would suspect almost invisibly on wrong numbers.

    I just wanted to let you know, " so far, so good!" I just received the notice that my new 800 number is up and working and now feel confident in having my marketing material published with the objective of making money with that number in the forefront. I want to thank you for your advice and information and expeditious service. I've already recommended you to a few friends of mine who are planning to upgrade their telecommunication systems.

    With Best Regards,

    The ease and speed of your lookup system is the key. I was able to keep coming back time-after-time, until finally a good number became available. Then the system really comes through with an instant reservation. I swear I thought I heard a champagne cork popping.

    "We're astonished! Not only did we get the perfect toll free number (1-888-PUDGYPOO), it was up and working within a minute! No kidding, ONE minute! Then, to top it off, we had a few questions about picking a carrier, and the next day (a Saturday at that!) we received the best advice and referrals we could have hoped for. tollfreenumbers.com and Mr. Quimby... there is no better way to go!"

    Not only is this the best site on the web for choosing toll-free numbers, the only one that allows you to pick words (instead of numbers,) and have multiple choices emailed to you, but they provide instant personalized service! I was skeptical that there was a real person on the other end of the email, but in the course of selecting my number, Rita corresponded with me ten times from 6/1 through 6/8! Even on the weekend! Then when I activated my number, I called and it rang instantly! I am amazed. Your service is superb! Moreover, I can't believe I got this number!

    You guys are great. Your site made it easy for me to keep looking until I found a number that fit, and even though I did that search on a Sunday evening, it was working by 5:30am Monday morning, ringing right to my mobile as requested.

    On your site and in your manual, you also include a lot of extra useful information, unexpected and very much appreciated.

    Thank you,

    If you are thinking about obtaining a serious vanity number, then look no further than Bill Quimby's website "tollfreenumbers.com". Mr. Quimby is extremely helpful and to my surprise answered his phone at 8pm to help me obtain an 877 number that was showing as possibly already taken. After a couple of minutes he had acquired the number for me and gave me 15 days to decided if I really wanted to keep it with no charge to me! Not only does he provide an outstanding service up front his after sales support is also fantastic. My emails where answered within the hour! If I had to grade his service it would have to grade it an A+! Thanks again Bill for all your help! If I need another number you can be sure I'll be back for your help again.
