About NPA 833

833 launched September 2017 with all 7.98 million numbers fresh in the spare pool. It started at less than 9% in use. Within 8 years it crossed 80%. When 833 fills, the industry will need a new toll-free prefix — likely 822 or 880, both of which have been reserved for that purpose.

Status decomposition over time

Every toll free number sits in exactly one status: working (in active use), assigned (allocated but not yet routing), reserved (held briefly during pickup), disconnect (aging out before returning to spare), transit (mid-port between RespOrgs), unavailable (held by Somos), or suspend. Watch the mix shift as the prefix has matured.
