Is TollFreeNumber.org making things up?
I saw an article recently posted by TollFreeNumber.org on another site that lets people post things. Maybe they paid for it, it’s not really important. But I noticed that they stated that they provided toll free numbers with fiber optics. That might sound OK to someone that doesn’t know anything about toll free but I have to tell you that’s such a load of crap. I’m sorry but there’s no other way to say that. Here’s what they said:
“Fiber optics are the best
Like the big companies, TollFreeNumber.org uses fiber optic technology, ensuring clarity and reliability for every phone call, except prices for the customer are typically forty percent cheaper. For a small business owner, cheaper is definitely better, especially when the service is comparable, or even better.”
One way you can prove that this is bogus is to do a search on Google for “toll free” and “fiber optics” the only page that uses the word “toll free” for anything other than mentioning their own toll free number, is tollfreenumber.org’s blog site. I went into the second and third page of search results and still couldn’t find any actual listing that actually used the phrase “toll free” in connection with “fiber optic.”
There’s simply no such thing as Fiber Optic Toll Free Service.
Does that mean tollfreenumber.org’s service is somehow different than every other phone company’s? No, they don’t even provide any service themselves. They’re just selling services from other companies, so how can their service really be any different?
You would think that since they’re both telecommunication related if anyone really offered tollfree service with fiber optics they would mention them on the same page, other than in front of their toll free number. Nobody else mentions this though because there is no such thing as “fiber optic toll free” service or non-fiber optic toll free service. The toll free calls are just forwarded to a local number. It just doesn’t work the way they’re implying.
I’m not saying tollfreenumber.org is lieing. This isn’t a lie so much as just a very inappropriate or dumb thing to say. I’m not sure if it’s because they think it sounds good to the consumer who doesn’t know any better or if someone that doesn’t know the business is writing their articles. I’ve pointed out before such as in the 822 number article, so I’m inclined to assume that it’s just because they’re having people who don’t know the business write their pages. I guess that comes from the need to produce so much content. Sometimes you have to take quantity over quality. I won’t link to this from the home page because this isn’t a big deal, but I’ve noticed stuff like this a couple times in their articles so I figured it was worth mentioning.
Why let the facts stand in the way of a good sales pitch, right?
The funny part about this is that TollFreeNumber.org isn’t a phone company. They don’t even actually provide toll free service to customers themselves. They just sell the service of other companies. They are essentially an affiliate site or perhaps more appropriately categorized as a Super Affiliate since they sell for a couple different companies and because they make a little of their own web content. They don’t provide phone lines, they don’t do the customer service, they’re just a website selling other toll free service for other phone companies. There’s nothing wrong with that, but they wouldn’t know a fiber optic cable from an extension cord. They know internet marketing and have to write things they think sound good. But TollFreeNumber.org isn’t a world class provider of anything because they don’t provide it, they just sell it.

Tollfreenumber.org is nothing more than a bunch of thieves; I searched for an 800 number in their site and found an “available” number. I followed they recommendation to purchase through their website and was charged to my credit card $89.99, followed by an order number. Next day I got a call from a Lady called Brynnae and in a series of emails she said that the number I have bought was taken by someone else and insisted if I would be interested in purchasing another number, I responded that no I am only interested in the number I bought and if she couldn’t deliver to please refund my credit card the amount charged. She send me a link for cancelations and what I found was a site that would charge an all type of fees and penalties for service cancelations to which I didn’t feel was my case. I wrote the mysterious “Brynnae” numerous times to no avail. Obviously I will stop payment on my CC however who needs the headache.
Learn from my mistake don’t deal with these thieves…..
