The problem comes in losing the data between the two toll free numbers. If you are trying to track your calls or terminate at a call center, they won't have any statistics available. We've had a company do this for us before.<ul></ul> Actually, you can point a toll free to a toll free with the carrier. The problem comes in losing the data between the two toll free numbers.

The only way it's possible is to either forward a toll free number to a local number that you forward to the second toll free number or to use an enhanced voicemail service which essentially points the toll free number to a voicemail platform which then forwards the calls out to the second toll free number. Enhanced voicemail services can forward to a toll free number because it's not actually pointing the toll free number directly to the second toll free number. Either way it has to go through an intermediary step because you can't point a toll free number directly to another toll free number. The caller id information can be lost in this process because the caller id of the intermediary number may be sent to the secondary TF number.<ul></ul> No, you can’t point a toll free number DIRECTLY to another toll free number, to be more exact.

If my toll-free # rings to my local #, can I use my local #'s call-forwarding to receive ALL calls (local and toll-free) on another phone (cell, etc.) when I'm away? I'm guessing, yes, but please let me know. Thanks.<ul></ul> How about this… If my toll-free # rings to my local #, can I use my local #’s call-forwarding to receive ALL calls (local and toll-free) on another phone (cell, etc.) when I’m away?
