About this category

This is by far the biggest category in terms of toll free numbers even though it has very few companies in it. These are probably the names you know, (from largest to smallest in #s) Verizon, Bandwidth, AT&T and Lumen Technologies all with millions of numbers each. Then come the Canadian companies, with hundreds of thousands of numbers, Telus, Bell Canada, Allstream and Rogers.

This small handful of companies provides over 40% of the toll free numbers in use in North America.These are obviously huge companies with lots of different “doors” or avenues to approach them.You won’t talk to their resporg departments.Companies this large aren’t the fastest or cheapest but they are usually reliable.
