As the industry waits for news on when the 855 toll free area code numbers will be available, we keep getting the same question over….How many existing toll free numbers are obtained each week that passes? There is no absolute figure but best we can figure about 8,000 toll free phone number are taken each day so we figure roughly 50,000 a week. Far less are being returned to the system and no new numbers have been made available. This means that there is a growing demand, but no new stock. Eventually, the stock will be so limited that it will stall the industry. That is why we are advocating for the release of the 855 area codes which will allow millions of additional options for toll free subscribers.
