Bill is perhaps the most impressive business person that I have dealt with in my 20+ year career as an attorney. He is incredibly 'available' to his customers, which is in my opinion the most important aspect of a well run business. I sent an email to Bill on a Saturday and I heard back from him within minutes of getting my email. This was BEFORE I was even a customer of his. Bill had sent me a detailed listing of possible toll free numbers for my law firm.
Finding toll free numbers for a law firm is virtually impossible. All the good numbers and even the bad numbers were scooped up years ago. I told Bill what I was looking for and he came up with 888.4.My.Law.Team. I quickly registered the domain name www.4MyLawTeam.com and BOOM, just like that I had a readymade business name for my personal injury law firm. I had been using the name www.PersonalInjuryTeam.com, and I will continue to use that name, but adding 4MyLawTeam to my arsenal is fantastic.
Thank you Bill for your hard work and kindness. I plan to purchase a new sign for the parking lot at my office which will feature my new toll free number, so if you happen to be in Revere, Massachusetts- stop by for a visit!

The overall experience from your company, service, and user friendly website was outstanding. The phone number search applications & tools were beyond user friendly, they were very intuitive, and I really liked the additional suugestions and group of top picks reccomended.
Also, on top of all that, in this culture of rarely getting a live person on the phone for help, you not only take calls, but are very accessable without even screening the calls! THAT, in itself is amazing!
I salute you & your company.

Thank you SO very much ! My number is up and working. You guys were and are really awesome. Personally, I love the fact that you are a small company because I felt that good old fashioned personal attention that has been lost in today's world. You were quick, efficient and friendly and I will recommend you to anyone and everyone I encounter who may need a Toll Free Number.
Have an AWESOME day !

I just started my new talk radio production business and needed a clever 800 vanity number for the show. Knowing nothing about this, I hopped on to a search engine and typed "vanity 800 numbers". I tried a few of the links and found many websites offering this service. However, most of these services had some severe flaw (poor navigation, confusing directions, limited search capabilities, high prices) that turned me away... until I found Mr. Quimby's service. I was able to quickly find my number (1-888-7-RADICAL) which is now the call-in number for my nationally-syndicated talk radio show. Bill's follow-up emails and immediate temporary setup helped me test the system before porting it over to a major carrier. Kudos to Bill Quimby for helping me establish my meager media empire!

Thanks for the excellent service and solutions to my 800 needs. Prior to talking with you, I knew nothing about the business of 800 vanity numbers. You helped make it easy and now I own a slick new number!
Thanks again.

The number already works. WOW!!! Thank you for the instantaneous service on my new phone number. I believe it'll be one of the factors in the success of my new poker game, 211 Poker.
Mr. Quimby's direct conversation and willingness to help is a rare quality in today's hectic business world. He was great to speak with and the service really worked.

We Googled around looking for a vanity number as well as voice mail service, but after reading the fine print on most of the service providers websites we realized that the providers would technically own our number, meaning that we couldn't take it with us if we decided to switch to another service later. Luckily we stumbled upon TollFreeNumbers.com and were able to secure a number that "wasn't available" according to the other providers. Instead of renting a second-choice number, we now own the number that we wanted all along. Thanks Bill!

Just ordered our 5th number from you, and might order our 6th in a minute or two... For any business - and especially with a web-based business - the credibility that a related vanity toll free number provides is substantial. For this price, you'd be crazy not to do it!
Still amazing service, including quick replies from the owner himself. This is a wonderful (and rare) company - keep up the good work.
Sincerely,
Scott Harvey

Bill,
We are beginning to franchise our concept and need an 800 number. We are quite willing to pay the $6995 if we could get a really go number. We tried to get 800-RUBBISH (which would be perfect) but the owner said ‘absolutely not’. If you have other good alternatives, we’re open to ideas, but we have used your service to get alternatives and we don’t see any yet that we feel are good enough.
Thanks, Ted

Hi Ted,
First of all, I appreciate your business (he had just ordered a number) and will help you any way I can, however we really can’t do that type of consulting any more. We are too visible now in the industry to do the bounty hunter work any more. We try to teach people how they can track things down themselves, (see http://www.TollFreeNumbers.com/consulting/) but we are more like real estate agents now, than bounty hunters. We do the best job in the industry at helping customers find good options related to their keywords or business, but we can’t make generic terms become available any more than you can go get generic domain names inexpensively.
The good news is that you don’t need a generic domain name to build a successful business and you don’t need a generic toll free number either. The first most obvious domain name isn’t available any more than the first most obvious toll free number is. But you don’t drink generic soft drinks or buy generic cereal. You don’t drive a generic car or want to buy generic things in most categories. You look for a brand name. It may sound easier to start if you have a generic name, but in the long run a brand name ALWAYS does better.
It’s OK to be descriptive or suggestive but you do NOT want, nor do you need to to be a generic name for your business. You won’t be the first in the search results when they look for your company name, people looking you up in the phone book will see other businesses with similar sounding names, and you will need to do more advertising before people will remember your name. This is especially important for competitive or crowded industries.
Another thing to keep in mind is that the Keyword Search is only looking at one cross section in time. It can look into the future a little by checking the numbers in disconnect which are coming out within the next few months but there is a pretty high turnover in toll free numbers and if you are persistent you will often find better numbers available. The Keyword Search that mails the 800 Watch emails to you makes it easy to be persistent because it will email you the new serch results as soon as we have the new database ready each month.
This is already overkill in answering this question, but we also have a very good section of our site about this:
http://www.tollfreenumbers.com/lookup/#post-237
And the point about asking us if we have any ideas is kind of tough too. We’ve tried to program the computer to try to emmulate creativity by understanding relationships so it could try related terms. But the system is too big to really answer a question about alternatives personally. I appreciate the faith you have in me, but the computer is honestly way better than I can ever do. But I suspect that the Google computer is smarter than even the smartest Phd’s that work there. So just make sure you try or even beat on the Keyword Search (http://www.tollfreenumbers.com/keyword/). It’s an awesome tool.
I hope that helps. Let me know if you need anything else.
