Acting Like A Phone Company?

Not a Phone CompanyGoogle purchased Grand Central in 2007 and relaunched it in 2009 as Google Voice. Which i think is a great product but in some eyes they are moving and behaving increasingly like a phone company.

The FCC is now effectively treating them more as one as well. They sent them a letter requesting information on early terminations that they sent to other wireless carriers such as AT&T, Sprint, T Mobile and Verizon. The interesting point is that the FCC is now looking at and treating Google as a phone company because they are acting like one.

That raises an interesting question. Would the corollary also be true. If you don’t act like a phone company will the FCC treat you like you’re not a phone company? We’re a good example. We don’t act like a regular phone company by any means. We don’t provide ongoing service. We’re also the of company trying to get rid of all of our customers as fast as we can. We’re a search engine for toll free numbers. We have to be a resporg in order to activate the numbers our customers need but as far as the FCC is concerned we’re not providing phone service nor are we behaving like a phone company so maybe by the FCC logic, we’re not a phone company or under their jurisdiction.

    As I'm sure others new to obtaining a toll-free number have discovered, trying to learn about the various services, plans, and providers can be overwhelming. There are pitfalls: The fine print of some contracts indicates that the 800-number you obtain through them "belongs" to--or is leased by--the service provider, and if you wish to change providers, you will have to change numbers as well. Alternatively, the service provider
    can delay your request to transfer, creating another headache. Another problem not clearly disclosed by provider sites is the higher per-minute charges for instate calls in based on intrastate tariffs in some states, in my case over .07 per minute.

    With my frustration level rising while navigating provider sites and learning about the system, I found Bill Quimby's "TollfreeNumbers.com" site and experienced immediate relief! TollfreeNumbers.com provides straightforward information about obtaining a toll-free number. More importantly, the site assists its clients with securing and registering an 800 number that belongs solely to the client, along with an informative guide to choosing a service provider. What a great public service!!!

    Thank you!!

    Drink It, Flip It, Live It, with the Flip Cup GuysTollfreenumbers.com was easy to use and, most importantly, gave us results that significantly improved our brand recognition. Without TollFreeNumbers.com and its knowledgeable customer service team, we never would have been able to have our company, Flip Cup Guys, find such an easy-to-remember toll free number.

    I was very pleased at how quickly and easily I was able to use your website to find a toll-free number that "worked" well for our law firm. In addition, I was absolutely astounded at how quickly the toll-free number was up and running and ringing in on our local number. It was virtually instantaneous. It was also very reasonably priced. Keep up the terrific work!

    I stumbled onto your site during an internet search and boy I'm glad I did. You had the best site that gave multiple suggestions as to numbers that was looking for at a resonable price. When ever I telephoned or emialed you with questions you responded very promptly. From my experience you offer the most complete, prompt, and professional service.

    Thanks,
