Bill you are AWESOME!! Thanks a bunch. If everyone was able to run a business like you, we would live in a much happier world. Two of my friends that I told about your site, found numbers for themselves already and bought them in the last week too.
I run a very upscale and successful pavement maintenance business in Hunterdon county NJ. Ive been looking for a little marketing boost after being in the business for over 15 years and I think this is it!! I recently purchased 1-877-4beckage for my business and will be putting it on all my literature soon.In a fast paced world of cut throat businesses, you have got to find a way to differentiate yourself from the next guy and I think this will help greatly.
Believe it or not your site has also got some new and other old ideas flowing in my head for other business ventures and with finding the rite numbers for them , I bought them as well!!! You know what they say, you cant keep a good man down!! 
God bless the ever presant go getter in the both of us! I will be passing on this great site to about 40 friends in a business group im in and will tell them all how easy your site is to use. I will write you a nice testamonial for your web site also very soon. Keep up the good work.
Thanks much,

For anyone considering getting a toll free number, this is by far the best service available to find a good number.
I currently have a few hundred toll free numbers, and before I found out about this website I have literally spent hours on the phone with the phone company just to see what was available. A few times I got luckey, but most of the time I had to settle with a random "866" number.
Bills service is truely unique, the search function is the best around, and when I find something I do like I can have it activated literally within minutes even late into the evening after all the phone companies are closed.
Some might argue that the $49 search fee is too much money, when you can do the same thing for FREE with the phone company.
The question you got to ask yourself is how much money is your time worth, and then you always run the risk of the number no longer being available when you call your phone company and find someone who actually knows what they are doing.
Keep up the good work :)

Thank you for providing such a powerful tool for marketing. In just minutes I was able to find several excellent toll free numbers, and your immediate activation is unbelievable. Please keep up the good work and I'll surely be back for more numbers as my various business ventures grow.
Thanks again,

The simplicity and speed of your service is amazing! The intended end-carrier told me that the number I wanted was unavailable (according to an FCC database). I hung up and registered the number here and it was active within 60 seconds! Very impressive. Thanks!

Bill has never waivered from his stance of being honest and more than fair to his clients. Simply stated, Bill is a true business professional. Namada.com, my company, is not as focused as Bill's. So I will get questions from clients and our global agents about tollfree numbers that I cannot directly answer. My response to them is always "if there is an answer, I know where to get it - Mr. TollFreeNumbers."

Bill Quimby runs a very detailed operation. There are no 'hidden fees' or 'catches' that as an American consumer, I am unfortunately USED to. I also made three or four calls to the company. Not only did I get answers every time, BUT BILL QUIMBY himself answered 2 of my calls.

I never realized that I possibly wouldn't own my 800 number until read about it at tollfreenumbers.com. Having obtained this knowledge from your site, I searched several other websites regarding the purchase of my own vanity 800 number. I ultimately went back to your site for this purchase because it was the most straight forward and helpful website that I found. After I purchased my number I received a confirmation email and proof of purchase immediately. I tried it within a couple of minutes and it worked! The call I made from my land line to the toll free number was forwarded directly to my cell phone with no discernible delay, just as promised.
In addition, it provided the best toll free vanity number available for my business. For some reason, the other sites' number selection couldn't come up with anything that I was comfortable with.
I am truly happy and excited about the impact this toll free vanity number will have on my business.
Thank You,

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.
