Educated consumers are our best customers

There is a limited supply of possible toll free numbers (31.7 million possible numbers) and only about 1% of them are really good vanity numbers. We aren’t changing the availability but we are helping our customers to overcome it, by providing as much open and honest information as possible and by providing the most effective search tools to help them find good vanity numbers despite the scarcity. (See also: Why we’re the answer to 800 Scarcity)

The three most important categories of numbers in terms of finding good numbers for your business are Available #s, Disconnected #s and Premium #s. There is a section for each of them along with a button on the top of the page (Activations, Backorders, Premium #s) that describes these numbers and how to get them.

There are actually more than a dozen different types of numbers that we track or manage in order to provide a more complete lookup system and help customers find the best possible numbers. This section is designed to explain more thoroughly all of the different types of numbers.

Other phone companies simply say available or not available (although surprisingly often they just say NOT available even when they are available). So I hope this puts thing into perspective and explains the system more without making it look too complicated. If you don’t follow all this just realize the three main types of numbers that we can get for you, Available, Disconnected, and Premium #s.

    Testimonial 347 out of 1701

    I'm very skeptical of anything internet. I am shocked at the professionalism of tollfreenumbers.com. The fees for a quality 800 number are reasonable. Where the large companies failed tollfreenumbers.com prevailed!

    That is the headline that I'd write for Bill and Rita. You see, I got a great tollfree number from them and it was time to implement it, I put down the wrong number. If it weren't for their patience and help it would have been a real problem.


    We went back and forth a couple of times with a virtual call forwarding service I had joined. While the new tollfree number is being ported (transferred to be a direct number rather than ringing forward) the service assigned me a temporary number so the tollfree number could forward calls to me. Everything seemed okay. However, after a couple of days I tested the service's forwarding number. It was working. The new service was working. But the tollfree number was ringing into an intercept that said the number was "no longer in service".

    That started our journey: I shot off an email to Rita... she replied she would have it working in a couple of hours... I tried the next day but it still wasn't working. I shot off an email to Bill. He and Rita both wrote back and said it was working from New York and New Jersey. I tried the tollfree number from a New York phone but it still wasn't working... so I wrote to them saying, "I keep dialing 888-807 and the rest of the number.

    Shortly thereafter I got an email reply from Rita suggesting that the number I purchased was 888-708 not 888-807.

    Hmmmmm, I sheepishly dialed the correct number and through some miracle it worked :-/

    So, if you have configuration problems with a TollFreeNumbers.com number and if you are dyslexic, as I am, have someone else in your office dial your new number. :-)

    My thanks to Rita and Bill for their patience with me.

    Thanks again,
    Steve Campbell, an embarrassed but satisfied customer

    I used to be in the Wireless business and KNOW for a fact that your services are needed, whether people know it or not!! I used to own over 180 (one hundred eighty) toll free numbers! It was literally impossible to request a vanity number from any of my providers, when my customers asked I told them to forget about it! Your service is very valuable for the people who know that time is MONEY!!

    This is my fourth vanity number from you. It was still quick and painless as the first time. All I did was put in a few words and within 5 minutes I was able to find the number I wanted. 800 number for The Law of the Seasons I remember one of them I had a little difficulty with but you responded back quickly to me via email and I almost fell over. You actually responded that quick and helped me to get what I needed.

    Thanks for an easy way to find vanity numbers. There is no other company I need to look for mine.

    Sincerely,

    1-800 MARKETER provides a fabulous service! I loved being able to search for my own vanity number without waiting for some unknown "staff" to get back to me. The reservation system gave me time to get the logistics of having an 800 number routed through my phone service without worring about losing the number I had found and activation was unbelievably easy for this technologically-challenged entrepreneur!
