They have been non-responsive to my inquiries (one e-mail and one voicemail), which have simply indicated an interest in this number and requested they reach out to me directly. For a fee, of course, would your firm be willing to attempt to work out a deal with them on my behalf to port this number over to me?

They don't like me very much because I give people an alternative. My one time fee is a fraction of their monthly fee. I point out the <a href="http://www.tollfreenumbers.com/blogs/the-dark-side-of-shared-use.html" rel="nofollow">dark side of their business</a> and the horrible things they do to their customers. I'm fine with people like that disliking or even hating me, because I've got thousands of customers that love me and my business. But unfortunately that means that I can't negotiate with them. I have a post that talks more about <a href="http://www.tollfreenumbers.com/content/consulting/negotiating-with-shared-use-companies.html" rel="nofollow">Negotiating with Shared Use 800 services</a>. We're making a directory of toll free providers including shared use companies that will have more information and some feedback too but it's not ready yet. But check back soon because we're actively working on that now. Bill<ul></ul> Zach,
