You can dig a little deeper

Get a backup

The first thing to do if you’re going to dig deeper is to get a back up number because you have deadlines and this is unpredictable. You don’t even have to activate your backup.  You can just reserve it for 2 weeks while you pursue this.  You just don’t want to get most of the way through and have things hit a snag without having a backup number on reserve that we can activate for you at the last minute.

Dial the number

The next thing to do is so simple people sometimes overlook it. Just pick up the phone and dial the number. If the phone number doesn’t go through that does NOT mean it’s available, any more than if you put a domain name into your browser and it doesn’t pull up a web page that, that means the domain name is available to be registered. The only thing you can really know for sure by dialing a number/entering a domain name is that if it does go through to someone or to a website, that it’s definitely not available except from that end user. The biggest difference between domain names and toll free numbers is that there’s no “whois” type of central or open database with the owners information. The owners information is kept by each phone company and is not public or given out very readily.

TIP:  There are a couple toll free directories you can check for any customer information.  They don’t have a very high percentage of numbers listed but there is a chance it might be listed.  Take a look at GoTollFree.com, AnyWho.com as well as InternetTollFree.com

    I run a very small charity dedicated to fighting Teen Dating Violence (TDV) and have been looking for a toll-free number for our organization for weeks. It was with relief that I found your tool for searching for available numbers.

    Your website was very helpful especially the inclusion of suggestions as that prompted me to apply more creativity in my search for "the perfect number."

    I'm happy to say that I've found it: 1-877-STOP-TDV

    Best regards,

    You're definitely the Guru of toll free numbers. When I need to research or secure a toll free number I always turn to your website Tollfreenumbers.com. Before I knew about the website my searches for toll free numbers were time consuming and tedious. As a call center, I've actually used your search ability to close deals. My customers like that I’m willing to take the extra steps to research which numbers are available as I attempt to find them a toll free number that adds sales/profits to their project. How much do I rely on tollfreenumbers.com? I can only say that I was in a state of panic recently when the site was updating information and I couldn’t conduct my search. I’ve come to rely upon Tollfreenumbers to be my partner in toll free solutions.

    Keep up the great work!
