Why would the Toll Free Search Engine show a date of 1970?

That is the default computer date when there is no date and it essentially means that the number is RESERVED, or at least was at the beginning of the month.

That date is usually the date of the last change in the resporg file. But since reservations occur when a number is in Available status there is no last change date or active since date. So the computer defaults to 1970. I think it has to do with how some computers or programs count the year. But just remember that on our website 1970 means the number was Reserved at the beginning of the month.

      Thank you so much for the services that you provide. You made it so easy for me to acquire a toll-free number that is meaningful and easy for folks to remember. Your website is user-friendly, activation was immediate, the inclusion of minutes for the first month was so helpful, and your advice on where to take the number next was on the money (I am using one of your recommendations!)! Of course choosing from among the thousands of possible numbers you found was not easy, but it was a lot of fun! Now, when people want to rent my cottage on Cape Cod, it's easy for them to remember what to dial! Thanks, again, for making this process so simple.

      Wow!!! I've been all over your site for a while to be sure I had enough information to make an informed decision. I read countless testimony's and never imagined they could be so accurate. When I called and Bill picked up and showered me in information and help. I knew I was making the right choice. Getting 877-MY-OMNI1 was better than I was expecting.

      Thanks!!!

      Testimonial 462 out of 1928

      I was fortunate enough to come across tollfreenumbers.com while starting from scratch in my search for an 800 number.

      I began by reading some of the history of the numbers and how they work. I always feel that when someone is trying to educate you about a topic, they likely a)Know the subject very well, b)Are legit, because I always feel that scammers prey on the ignorant. That was a large part of why I stuck around the site researching.

      When I had a question, I fired off an email and Bill responded (on an evening during a holiday weekend no less!) right away and provided pages and pages of possible vanity numbers for my business, all at no charge! Once I got my number, I was very impressed at the instant activation. It was exciting to try out the new number as it was one of the first steps in creating my new business.

      Thanks,

      Thank you for the tool in your website that suggests alternate toll-free numbers. I used it to find 2 very good numbers. I also read your notes and information on your website - very educational. And then, I was surprised to see how quickly and trouble-free the activation process was. Thank you for an excellent service.

      I want to thank you for going the extra mile to make sure that my toll free number transferred correctly. Through your service, I got a fantastic number (TO-MY-MEMOIR) that will be great for my autobiography business. I had some problems when I tried to transfer the number to PNG, but with your help, the number is working now. I appreciated the advice that you gave in your website, and found the whole process to be much easier than I had expected. I would definitely recommend you to anyone who is looking to get a toll-free number.

      Thanks again,

      Testimonial 887 out of 1928

      I did not think it was possible to get a number so quickly. I found the number I wanted, then purchased it online, and I "instantly" got my number. It could not be any faster. You even have a way to reserve the number in case I found another number that was better.

      After I purchased my number, I was quite confused. I was not sure what to do next. How do you move it to your curent provider? Is there a fee to move? Who do you speak with? Then, low and behold, I got a complete manual on what to do, who to speak with, and what to say. I even got a toll free number "birth certicate". You guys anticipated every question we had and questions we did not even think of.
