If you’ve ever wanted a custom toll-free number (or know of someone who does) – I got this over the weekend and thought it might be of interest.

“Last Friday at 4:30pm, the FCC quietly announced that they had moved up the release of the first new toll free area code in a decade.  855 Numbers will go into operation October 1st.  The Pre-Release Request process begins on Tuesday July 6th at 3:00pm EST at www.855numbers.com.  Customers will be able to request any 855 Numbers from the phone company of their choice for just $8.55.”
